Description

The hornworts I saw definitely looked a little different than the liverworts: smaller, darker, more flimsy. The liverwort here had these weird structures on the edges of its thalli. I'm assuming they're some kind of reprodcuctive structure...

Possible Coprinus micaceus that had been washed by rain, but I'm not sure. It's a group of mushrooms I don't know very well.

About 4cm tall, observed in Oakland, CA, USA.

Once again I checked the wild ginger patches, and once again was mostly skunked for flowers, except for this one, which was just about to open.
