This was an odd find — at first glance, it looked a little like a morel species, but upon closer inspection the fuscous, moist cap had what looked like “veins” running down it.

I saw a similar-looking fungus on Day 15.

EDIT 19/10/25

I’ve identified this as a juvenile Pluteus umbrosus, after seeing one at a fungi foray.

This would explain its distinctive wrinkly cap, which had not yet expanded.
