Zierlicher Dachpilz

Pluteus exiguus is a small, pale-capped mushroom in the genus Pluteus, producing pink-tinged gills and spores at maturity. It grows on decaying hardwood logs and stumps in temperate European forests. This saprotrophic fungus decomposes dead wood and obtains nutrients through enzymatic breakdown of lignified plant tissue.
