Common Funnel
A pinkish tan to yellowish, funnel-shaped mushroom with crowded decurrent cream gills and a white spore print, common in leaf litter under hardwoods. It was moved out of Clitocybe in 2003. It is sometimes eaten, but sources disagree and it resembles poisonous white-spored funnel caps.
Edibility disputed; not recommended. Wikipedia calls it edible when young but mediocre; Colorado Mushrooms advises against eating it because of unknown and possibly poisonous look-alikes. White-spored funnel caps include Clitocybe species that contain muscarine.
