Hypholoma subericaeum

A small, slender Hypholoma of wet ground, common in north-western Europe with nearly 900 GBIF records, most from Belgium and Britain. It grows among moss and grass in damp places rather than on wood, and is not a food species. It is rarely cultured, so these targets come from the measured climate and the genus.
