Stropharia viridula

Stropharia viridula is Morgan's 1908 combination of Schaeffer's Agaricus viridulus, a green, slimy roundhead from Europe that most modern authors treat within the Verdigris agaric group (S. aeruginosa and S. caerulea). It grows on woody litter, wood chips and rich soil in woods and parks and fruits in autumn.
