Hi mushroom lover friends

This is my first experience joining the Fungi Friday community which was initiated by brother @ewkaw. Indonesia is a country that has a tropical climate and there are only 2 seasons, namely the rainy season and the dry season.

At the end of the year, like in December, it rains continuously every day which makes the environment around our house very humid. What I like about weather like this is that there are lots of unique and beautiful shaped mushrooms that grow around our house.

This is the first mushroom I encountered today, we call it the Red Cup Mushroom in Indonesian. The term name is the Sarcoscypha Occidentalis fungus which grows on woody stems. The shape is like a glass leg which is red and slightly pink in color, but what is unique is that all over the body of the mushroom there are long hairs like very sharp spines, here are some photos I took of this mushroom.

Well, not far from the previous location I returned to find a mushroom that was no less beautiful, this mushroom grows on old coconuts that have long fallen from the tree, we call them Mini Umbrella Mushrooms in scientific language, Oudemansiella.

This mushroom is very small and grows close to each other, the color is pure white and shaped like an umbrella, what makes this mushroom even more beautiful is that there is a red dot in the middle of the umbrella, and from under the umbrella of this mushroom we can clearly see that there is a very sturdy spine. beautiful so it can make the umbrella of this mushroom bloom perfectly. Here are some photos I took of this mushroom.

This is my mushroom post for this Friday, see you in the next post.

I really like this mushroom, I often call this mushroom alien

it is a very beautiful mushroom

I think that the rainy season is much better for the growth of mushrooms, the humidity of the ground of your house is ideal for you to find mushrooms.
Although the two varieties you have found are beautiful, the ones I liked the most are the ¨Sarcoscypha¨¨Occidentalis¨
Have a splendid day

That's right brother, I really enjoy looking for mushrooms in the rainy season, thank you for visiting my post

There is nothing to thank, it has been a pleasure visiting your post

You share a good picture of the mushroom and the explanation is very detailed, but it would be better if you shared the picture of the mushroom from just a few sides

Thank you for your kind comments friends, this is my first mushroom post, for the next post I will definitely make it even better. May we continue to be successful and always happy 😊
