ID Request -- thinking Psilocybe Pelliculosa
    #13597699 -

Hi! This is my first time at the shroomery, and I decided to go hunting for the very first time. I found a bunch of small brown mushrooms growing from bark and wood and dirt, so I figured I'd give them a shot. So here they are I guess. I was thinking Psilocybe Pelliculosa, but I'm not really a mycologist so I don't know hah.

Habitat: I found them growing out of wood chips and dirt, near the Berkeley rose garden.

Gills: The gills appear to be white, kind of cream colored.

Caps: The caps are darker and light brown at the top, and get lighter and whiter as you move down the cap. This is after drying. Also, the diameter is about 2-3 cm per mushroom.

Stems: The stems are 2-3 inches long, and are hollow. They are change in color, as you progress up the stem they get lighter colored. Also, the bases are light in color, and had some white hairy things at the very bottom, when they were first picked.

Spore Print: Unfortunately, I was not able to get a proper spore print. If this prevents a proper I.D., let me know, I'll get a proper spore print next time.

Color of Bruises: It doesn't seem to change color when bruised...

Here are the pics:





Thanks for helping! And also, if I'm missing anything or something lemme know!

Those are Mycena, no Psilocybe has white gills.  Looks like you may have a couple Psathyrella in there as well.

Ha, wow buddy - way to post a thread of almost the exact same title as me, at, like, the exact same time... thread jinx?

Heh.. anyway man, it's kind of hard to tell by what you have provided, but it doesn't really sound like the most promising of spots to find them. And the gills don't look right at all, they are white, no? That would indicate Mycena sp.. Can you find a separable gelatinous pellicle? It's a reeeeally thin translucent skin that covers the cap. Those look like they certainly don't have that, and the texture doesn't seem right to me. And the stems look a bit brittle...

But than again, I am not an expert and am trying to get some ID'd myself so... best of luck!
:cheers:

I agree.The white gilled ones definitely look like Mycena.Those darker gilled ones look like Psathyrella.Sorry dood91 no active Psilocybes.:poison::frown:

Many Mycena species contain the mycotoxin muscarine.

If you give bad advice again you will be banned.
