Northbridge MA mushrooms.
6/15/09
The largest cap was 1.5". Fairy Ring
mushroom aka Marasmius oreades?

The stem was about 2.25" long and 1/8"
thick, on the largest. Stem was tough and solid.

On side.

Free gills.

Spore print was white. Spore
8.6 x 5.8 microns.

Looks like it has oil drops. Two guides I checked do not mention oil
drops, otherwise I would have identified it as the Fairy Ring mushroom aka
Marasmius oreades.
Tubifera ferruginosa, the
Raspberry Slime. A splash of color on a stump.
