You want to know how they are correctly pronounced in the US or the correct way to pronounce them in Latin?
Latin:
Pah-nah-ay-oh-loos
Lay-pee-oh-tah
Psee-loh-tsueue-bay (for the "tsueue" think "queue" with the q replaced by ts)
Geem-noh-pee-loos
Hee-grow-tsueue-bay

it's confusing because queue is not a native english word, the sound is actually closely related to the german Ü (u with umlaut [ue]) but I could also see french associations particularly with the spelling. GK would you agree?

I know mine are all wrong, but to play along, this is how I pronounce them in my head:
1.Panaeolus: Pan-aye-lee-us
2.lepiota: le-pee-oh-tuh
3.psilocybe: sigh-loh-sibe
4.gymnopilus: jim-nah-pih-lus
5.hygrocybe - high-grow-sibe
There was a link posted a while back with a wav file for each pronunciation. But I've since lost it.

You can pronounce them however you want. It's either in "Mushrooms Demystified" or my school textbook that says a lot of mycologists disagree on pronunciation and that it's really up to you. However, I have noticed that most students and pickers pronounce Psilocybe...Sill-O-Sibe and that most of our guest speakers say sill-oss-a-bee.
I'm in the first camp. Hows about you?
u asking me?

The word Psilocybe isn't Latin anyway...it's based on Greek, FYI, although the prefix "psi" does exist in Latin. Also, we have no freaking idea how Latin was actually pronounced, so what the heck.

You can see mycologists like Paul Stamets pronouncing them on youtube at seminars, a worthwhile watch if you are not interested in pronunciation too!

It's funny... I have never heard anybody else say these words as anyone I would talk to about this is here on the Shroomery. I do sometimes call them to me by name as I walk through the forest or pasture... It worked with Gymnopilus!

2.Lep-ee-oh-ta
3.Sigh-lah-sighb
4."jim-nawp-ill-us...jew-no-knee-us!"

This thread is indeed very interesting.
One weird thing about me is, that when I'm alone, hunting for mushrooms, I kind of narrate myself through the species I find. So, when I find Psilocybe cyanescens, I pronounce the name in my head. Well, the strange thing about it is, that I do it in English, although I'm German Probably has to do something with these forums
My whole mycological vocabulary is English. I have pretty hard times not to use English words, when I talk about mushrooms in German
Panaeolus = pan-eeh-oh-luss
Lepiota = leh-pee-oh-tuh
Psilocybe = sill-uh-sigh-b (though I don't pronounce the "b", like "bee", but like in the word "hype"... only with a "b", instead of a "p".
Gymnopilus = jim-nah-pee-luss
Hygrocybe = hygh-grow-sigh-b (same as with "Psilocybe")
What would be interesting I think is to find out how the species names are pronounced, so P. semilanceata, azurescens, cyanescens etc.
