Garg Sir, I agree that the pictures in this post looks very very similar to yours. In fact i should have left the ID as *Coprinus* (or *Coprinellus*) sp. only.
Not only the above, the pictures in following sites also seem to suggest this as *C. disseminatus* - - http://www.rogersmushrooms.com/gallery/DisplayBlock~bid~5850.asp - http://www.messiah.edu/Oakes/fungi_on_wood/gilled%20fungi/species%20pages/Coprinellus%20disseminatus.htm - http://www.mushroomexpert.com/coprinellus_disseminatus.html On the other hand *C. micaceus* in the above three sites are - - http://www.rogersmushrooms.com/gallery/DisplayBlock~bid~5856.asp - http://www.messiah.edu/Oakes/fungi_on_wood/gilled%20fungi/species%20pages/Coprinellus%20micaceus.htm - http://www.mushroomexpert.com/coprinellus_micaceus.html Now, please note the stipe length in all sites above - 1. up to 4 cm = *C. disseminatus* 2. u to 8 (8.5) cm = *C. micaceus* The picture, P1040987.jpg has more than 4 cm stipe. Perhaps the community has members with longer stipes. Please also note that in my another post from the same dead and rotten stump, at https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!starred/indiantreepix/OKDicob8DqQ, the mushroom has stipe more thick than *C. disseminatus*. So, i think this is *C. micaceus*. Thank you, Regards, surajit On Wed, Aug 7, 2013 at 5:31 PM, J.M.
