Mycena "sp-AZ03" that Scott Ostuni spotted near Fox Mountain, Colorado last year. I just got a sequence of it back from Mycota Lab. This probably undescribed species currently only known from Colorado and Arizona.

A tiny Favolaschia found yesterday in Monteverde, Costa Rica. These are basically in Mycena and will probably be moved into Mycena soon - the alternative is to split Mycena up into a whole bunch of similar looking genera.
