A field over the measurement network. The colour here is for the leading species at each point, not for this one; a per-species layer is computed for one region so far.
Sheathed Woodtuft in Friesland: where to look

Sheathed Woodtuft: the species in brief
How to tell it
Grows in dense clusters on dead wood. The cap is often two-toned, with a darker wet-looking outer band in damp weather. A thin ring may be present on the stem, but it can disappear on older specimens.
Where it grows
Mostly on stumps and fallen wood of broadleaved trees, occasionally on conifers.
In the kitchen
Where it is traditionally collected, it is thoroughly cooked before use. Because of the risk of confusion with Funeral Bell, this is a species for experienced foragers only.
Nutrition
Low in calories.
