Possible Armillaria Mellea?

Hi Guys


First post on here :)

When on a walk in my local woods at the weekend I kept coming accross a load of mushrooms.

The mushrooms were in large groups, all growing on dead trees in a very damp area.

I have attached some photo's. I didnt touch them as I didnt know what they were. I will try and get some better photo's when I am there tomorrow.

Thanks for the help

In general touching them should pose no threat. Mushrooms of all kinds that I know can only be toxic when ingested. My guess would be that these are Armillaria sp. Quite possibly mellea due to the ring. Still it would be better for someone who collects Honeys (which I do not) to chime in.
