Hi I need help trying to identify what kind of mushrooms are these.
Habitat: Wood - horse dung in a stable in a grassy area
Gills: go from gray to black
Stem: Whitish, pretty fragile, slightly enlarged at base.
Cap: light gray with little tint of brown...other in the same picture dark gray, even blue tinted looking.
Spore print color: black but i am not sure of this one.
Bruising: No color change was observed, when stem was mashed it looked brownish.
Location: southern Mexico y the Yucatan peninsula, (has been raining the last couple of days and the weather has been really hot)

They look a lot like Copelandia, however if they aren't bruising blue and are growing in clusters, so I guess they are just another most likely inactive Panaeolus species.
Look for very similar looking mushrooms that grow from dung and bruise blue when damaged.
There are also many interesting interesting Psilocybe species in Mexico.

They could be an active species.
Can you get some close up photos of the mushrooms gills, cap and stem?
No Panaeolus species are poisonous.

Those could be Panaeolus papilionaceus var. parvisporus.
Some extremely similar looking mushrooms in Jalisco are weakly active. You could eat 15 or 20 and see what happens.

hola estos se ven activos pero los que escojiste no , como dice alan parecen ser Panaeolus papilionaceus var. parvisporus. los que estaban cubiertos de esporas en la primer fotos parecen como subbalteatus o las especies que encuentro en estiercol de caballo que son activas ...
