Vouchered collection made of fresh sporocarps from same log on 4/21/2023.

Lamellae: light grayish brown, veined, anastomosing
Odor: insignificant

Substrate: moss on a Populus trichocarpa log
Habitat: riparian hardwood forest dominated by Populus trichocarpa and Fraxinus latifolia

I believe this is on Malus but may be Cydonia. Maybe Gymnosporangium juniperi-virginianae if on Malus sp. Here is a related observation of the same fungus and host from last year:

Same site as last year's collection of this novel Hygrocybe. Growth from underneath Thuja plicata roots. All fruits less than 1 cm, entirely greasy to viscid. Mostly bright red with orange margin. Pressed tightly against soil and roots, densely clustered, springtails abundant on gills even when just opened.

Same as:
