Waxcap #3 - Butter Waxcap

The third species has arrived - the Butter Waxcap (Hygrocybe ceracea). The give away to distinguish it from similar waxcaps are the translucent spot and striae, broadly attached gills and a knobbly surface to the cap plus a greasy cap but dry stipe. This one was a classic ceracea.
