I collected this fungus because it was in a quite strange place, a kind of large hole in the ground close to another one hewn in rock serving as a water 'reservoir'. I collected this fungus growing rocky soil at the side of the hole (2m below ground level). I've seen a lot of these now and I don't know what to call them.
I am doing a spore print and will let you know tomorrow.

Well, I have by now figured out to be a Melanoleuca sp. but not any further. I admit that I have shown this in an Italian forum, with some experts on the genus, and so far they cannot tell what the species is (they just confirmed the genus). I need to make some more microscopy. Now I am getting into Mycology too!
P.s. I adore these dangerous or/and dark places
