Hello Everyone, today I am back to prepare some beautiful mushrooms that I will be featuring in the #FungiFriday Community hosted by @ewkaw today.

Two days ago I went back around the cocoa plantation to look for mushrooms and there were some cocoa trees that were rotten and damp, and when I arrived there I immediately explored the Cocoa plantation hoping to get some portraits of the mushroom species that I wanted to show this time on Friday, and a few minutes later I found a species of hairy mushroom or better known by another name, namely Pezizaceae.

And at that time I found it on a rotten and damp log and at that time I immediately approached it to see it closely, and its small shape with red color and has fine hairs that look so interesting and unique, and at that time I immediately took some pictures that look very beautiful and elegant, and you can see below some pictures of this hairy mushroom species and I hope you like it.

The Pezizaceae (commonly referred to as cup fungi) are a family of fungi in the Ascomycota which produce mushrooms that tend to grow in the shape of a "cup".....Wikipedia

Then I found another species of red flake mushroom or better known by another name, namely Sarcoscypha austriaca, and at that time I found it on one of the rotten and damp logs and the shape of this mushroom species looked so unique, and from its shape it was like a flake with a red color that looked very beautiful, and at that time I immediately took several pictures that looked very beautiful and elegant, and you can see them below.

Then I found another species of small cap mushroom that I found in a pile of rotten and damp wood, and its small shape with a slightly brownish yellow color that looked so attractive and perfect, and at that time I immediately approached it and took some pictures that looked very beautiful and elegant because this mushroom species has its own characteristics, and you can see below some pictures of this mushroom species and I hope you like it.

Hello, dear friend @ridor5301

This cacao plantation is great for mushroom hunting; you've found some beautiful species.

All three species are very beautiful, but the ones that stand out the most are the Pezizaceae.

Beautiful photographs. Thanks for sharing with us.

Have a beautiful morning.
