Very sticky. It has an incredible delicious smell. The cap stayed wet even one day after being picked up. Gills had a gelatinous consistency and released matter in the preparation. KOH negative on cap. Edge of cap is white and made of thin hyphae with clamps. Cystidia is absent. Cap 1.1 cm; stipe 1.7 cm.

Group of mushrooms growing from very rotten tree trunk lying on the ground at the edge of a cypress-tupelo swamp.
Trees in immediate area: Tupelo gum, bald cypress, sweet gum, box elder and Chinese privet.
First noticed on 10/19/19.
Sampled on 10/23/19.

First 4 pictures showing the mushrooms at time of sampling.
Other pictures of same group on same log, but various dates that are shown on photo details.
(trying to figure out if I can label each picture)

When young, the caps are glossy and wet and sticky.
