Liberty cap ID request
    #13278973 - 10/02/10 09:40 AM (13 years, 5 months ago)

thought my luck would be in today but possibly not. found some nice places with all manner of fungal action going on, but no libs I don't think. (middle south UK)

I've been out a few times, and know some things not to look for, but still don't think I'm 100% in gear. In some photos there is a classic obvious Liberty Cap, and then in different weather conditions and variations things get harder. Good thing to be doing though!

anyways, would appreciate ID. I think they are all the same species, whatever they are.

thanks in advnace!

not too sure why the post was moved. i picked them cos I wasn't 100% and thought I'd be super pissed off if I came back home and found out they were Libs. and wasn't 100% about the I.D.

i think it's helpful for noobs to know the stuff which is close ish but not right.

Not sure why either but you have good shots of the species in several forms, might be educational.

Mega-slimy, caps in all right colours and shapes with most of the gill edges running near parallel to the cap margin, and fragile white stems.  None of these are merely viscous or striated like the more olivaceous wet libs and strictipes.  I find a lot of libs and a lot of these and trust.

actually after inspecting the gills closer. i noticed that joie has a point. the gills of strictipes are slightly different and the gills run parallel to the cap margin. im changing my opnion to stropharia semiglobata

Not denying that there are S. semiglobata in the batch, but some of those caps are too striate for semiglobata.

The heavily striate ones are definitely the same mushroom as this (which I am under the impression is P. strictipes):
