Waxcaps - Hygrocybe species
We're lucky here in North Wales to have a vast amount of untouched grassland compared to other areas of the UK which provides us with a great diversity of Waxcaps and other important grassland species such as Earthtongues, Corals and Entoloma. All of these were found within 50-100 meters of each other, with the Pink waxcap being quite rare it was left in situ.
