Xeromfalina Kaufman (Xeromphalina kauffmanii) – one of the many species of fungi from the genus Xeromphalin, the family Mycenaceae.
They usually grow on stumps, in colonies (there are especially many of these mushrooms on rotting stumps in spring), as well as on the forest floor, in clearings in spruce forests, and deciduous forests.
The fruit body is small, while the fungus has a pronounced thin-fleshy cap. The cap plates are translucent at the edges, the edges have lines. The diameter of the cap of the largest mushrooms reaches about 2 cm.
The leg is thin, capable of bizarre bending (especially if a group of xeromphalins grows on stumps). Both the cap and stem are light brown in color, with the lower parts of the mushroom having a darker hue. Some specimens of mushrooms may have a slight coating.
The white spores are elliptical in shape.
Xeromphalin Kaufman grows everywhere. There is no data on edibility, but such mushrooms are not eaten.
