At sea level, Madrone, Doug fir. Odor indistinct. Growing in duff.
Fruiting beneath Douglas fir and Western red cedar.
Cap: brownish gray, greasy/waxy, depressed at disc/infundibule. Faintly/tightly striate at incurved margins. Hygrophanous(fading to grayish tan).
Gills: slightly decurrent.
Stem: cylindrical to slightly flattened. Concolorous with cap. Faint white bloom at base.
Odor: not distinct.
Harvested 6 specimens.
Spore printed a single cap directly on a glass slide.
Spore print: White.
Mounted spore print in KOH.
Spores: Ellipsoid, smooth, some slightly curved. Medium/small in size.
Dehydrated all specimens thoroughly and bagged for herbarium collection/genetic record.

Fruiting in grass. Harvested/dried 4 fruiting bodies for home herbarium. Spore printed directly on glass slide and performed microscopy(images of spore microscopy included). https://mushroomobserver.org/410855?q=1EA4t
These little lepiotas were fruiting all over the Douglas fir, Spruce and Hemlock forest. They had a dark brown velvety center at the top of the cap, a cottony cortina on the young specimens and remnants around the margin on the older ones. Stipes were shaggy when young as well.
Spore print white, microscopy at X100, X400, X1000 in DI water.
Growing on decayed western red cedar. Initial thought was Callistosporium but not really sure that fits. Only one so don't want to check KOH since I will be sending in.
On Populus trichocarpa
Sames as https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/194232772 but later
Possibly. I think it's Pseudoomphalina though. Growing in grassy yard in a small patch of moss. Very strong cucumber smell.
Under Abies grandis, Pseudotsuga menziesii, Pinus ponderosa.
