I would make it out to be an older Stropharia ambigua , although the season isn't quite right AFAIK.  There's another species that is very similar looking, but the name is escaping me atm.

If its not Stropharia ambigua it is Leratiomyces percevalii.

Ah, that's what I was thinking of:  Stropharia riparia

To the OP,

You're on the right track, but just missed with this one.  The sample on the right does have a wavy cap that is similar to the Ps. Cyan but the stem is the key difference here.  Cyans have a whitish stem that is hardy and not brittle.  The stem of a cyan is tough, almost woody.  Also, cyans will almost always show signs of bluing, especially an hour or so later after picking.  Plus the margin of the caps will typically have some blue in them. 

It's near the end of the season, so the cyans are not fruiting in very large numbers now.  Finding them will be tough.

Similar but no dice.

Look for something like you found, but with a WHITE stem.

Again - a WHITE stem for Psilocybe cyanescens

yes allways white, NEVER yellow.
And they will allways bruise blue. Alot or little, and may take time to bruise.
