Coprinellus saccharinus

A species of Coprinellus.

Coprinellus saccharinus commonly emerges in groups on decomposing timber, flourishing in moist conditions. It presents fragile, slender caps that are initially ovoid, transitioning to a bell-like shape with age. These caps are distinguished by their pale hue, frequently exhibiting radiating furrows. The lamellae beneath the cap are recognized for darkening and dissolving into a liquid as Coprinellus saccharinus matures.
