Well thanks for looking! Psathyrella don’t last very long…
and it was no longer to be found.
The gills will not always be obvious through the pileus, and will absolutely not be visible if the pileus has dried, thus becoming opaque. Most Psathyrella are hygrophanous, and only striate when the tissues are saturated!
I still think this is a Psathyrella, though I have hit a brick wall with regards to observable features.
but a Psathyrella should have much darker gills showing through, which I don’t see in these photos. I do, however, see a shinier cap than stipe.
..That it is a Psathyrella. The stipe is shiny and slightly translucent, unlike Stropharia or Leratiomyces, and the cap and veil or veil remnants are very Psathyrella looking.
Maybe P. piluliformis or something similar.
But yes, it is rather frustrating having only a photo of the cap to work with.
without a photo of the gills or at least a description of the spore print color. But looks a lot like a very small Stropharia species.
