Today is fungi Friday: Found en route to river.

I'm back here and it's been many months since I shared a mushroom post with this nice community, but this time on a short walk to a river and waterfalls (Chorros de don lol in Colombia) I could see some mushrooms, of a very small size that not everyone would be able to visualize.
They are very common mushrooms, nothing out of the ordinary, but I found it amazing how the domain of mushrooms is Cosmopolitan, they are literally anywhere where the conditions are ideal for them or where they can colonize.

Of the genus Crepidotus, name Crepidotus stromaticus, they are of temperate climate, of humid forest also, their characteristic form is like a fan and they are small, they colonize any substrate that is organic matter, of which they can feed. I saw this type of fungus in my biology classes, they are one of the most common.
The place where they were found was in a small decomposing trunk.

The next one I have no idea what fungus it is, but it also seems to be a saprophyte that feeds on decaying organic matter, but I could not see the characteristics. It has on top of it looks like sawdust and organic debris, but I can't tell exactly what it is, as it was in a hard to reach place.

For the next case let's say that I had never seen this fungus, so it seems different and not very common, I do not know its name but according to Google lens it could be Dacryopinax elegans, but I can not differentiate very well the characteristics, anyway it was the most interesting of all I saw.

The last one could be a species of Rigidoporus, but I don't know the scientific name of this fungus either, I don't think I've seen it before, and it had a reddish-orange hue and spread over an entire tree branch.

I probably could have found more species, but the hike was quick to get to the waterfall and back before 3pm, so I didn't have time to explore enough.

A bonus of images that didn't turn out so well, but just for show.

Se que eres de Argentina así que mejor en español 😂, pues gracias por revisarlo, se que las fotos son pésimas comparadas a muchas de aquí. Pero hice lo que pude, sobre todo con los honguitos que parecen gelatina
