Very dark bird but I believe the tail confirms Goshawk rather than Sparrowhawk

We had to combine the two so, arbitrarily, I had Michael keep gigaspora . I had thought of getting it re-named to Oudemansiella 'annoying group'.

In the classification of Yang et al. 2009 in Mycostema the species that looked like these came out in Oudemansiella Section Radicatae (which made identification to section [=group?] easy). However, a paper a year later seems to have changed all that, unfortunately I have no access to that huge body of work. See Petersen RH, Hughes KW (2010) The Xerula/Oudemansiella Complex (Agaricales). Nova
Hedwigia Beih. 137: 1–625. More recent works on the oudemansielloid/xeruloid taxa appear to follow the Petersen and Hughes 2010 paper e.g. Allen Grace T. Niego et al. in MycoKeys 98: 253–271 (2023). On looking at some of these recent works it seems likely that the current genus name for most species in Australia is Hymenopellis. I suspect that neither Oudemansiella gigaspora group and Oudemansiella 'radicata group' is acceptable with respect to a modern classification. However, Oudemansiella 'radicata group' sort makes more sense using the Yang et al. 2009 classification where the Oudemansiella gigaspora group seems to have no basis. Unfortunately I suspect we will have trouble sorting this out until someone can look at the Petersen and Hughes paper.
