annulus

The annulus is a ring of tissue on a mushroom's stem left by a torn partial veil.

ascocarp

An ascocarp, or ascoma (plural: ascomata), is the fruiting body (sporocarp) of an ascomycete phylum fungus. It consists of very tightly interwoven hyphae and may contain millions of asci, each of which typically contains four to eight ascospores. - wiki

This ascocarp has apothecium fruiting bodies. You can tell because the fruiting bodies are cup-shaped.
