[url=https://files.shroomery.org/files/11-19/509495528-jp_138.jpg] I found these growing in cow dung. under some trees along the fence line. i am very familier with this feild been going there for years found alot of cubes there in the summer. figured i would see if any were there yet when i found these. i seen alot of differnt kinds of pans there also but like i said these ive never seen growing there before, oh yea they were only in the high grass that grew around the dung. Im in north carolina. temps and humidity has been good.80 degrees and humidity in the 70s rained 2 nights ago..

SPORE PRINT WAS ALSO JET BLACK..some stems were long and skiny as others were short. stems are redish brown in color and no bruising at base.

Could be, but i cant tell what color the print are. Is it jet black? If so they would be Pan. Subbs.
EDIT: Hehe you just filled in the info needed a few seconds before i asked. Youve got Panaeolus subbalteatus/cinctulus. (Two different names for the same mushroom.)

Panaeolus cinctulus does not grow in cow manure.

To the best of my knowledge it usually doesn't. If so it would be a rare occurrence.
Correction: it seems that they do occasionally grow from cow dung. I've personally only ever found them in horse pastures.

Well maybe has something to do with where you live then? Im in sweden and have found several different patches on cow manure. And i know more people who have. Knarkkorven on this forum has to which i saw in a thread a week ago or so.

Well, not really. Our climates should be pretty similar.

Well maybe then the fact that around my neighborhood there is just alot more cows than horses, may have something to do with it.
Either way horse owners are bad at stacking piles of horse manure around... What a shame.

Just out of curiosity, can you point me to a thread where Knarkkorven states that he found P. cinctulus growing directly from cow manure?

I suspect that pan. cinctulus will happily grow from cow dung (or any herbivore dung) if it is mixed with straw or another form of undigested plant material; what do you guys think?
As the the mushrooms in the OP: pics are too blurry. For all I know, they might even be an agrocybe species, although panaeolus seems more likely given the habitat. In that case, pan. cinctulus is also a possibility, but I couldn't give a positive ID based on these photos, unfortunately.

And like koraks said needs to be mixed with straw or something similar, but this goes for horse manure to.

Yes, that exactly pictures how I'd imagine it: old-fashioned stable-type dung, lots of straw mixed in it and decomposing on a nice mound. Basically a large, very rich compost heap. Perfect pan. cinctulus habitat I wouldn't expect to find them growing directly from a cow patty in the middle of a field.

Thanks. And that would also explain why they are much more frequently found on horse manure. Because dried horse manure usually breaks up into small bits of dry hay and straw. Ideal conditions for Panaeolus cinctulus. A cow's digestive tract with its 4 stomachs works a bit different and the end result is a fermented pulp, which is probably the reason why cow shit in and by itself isn't too ideal of a habitat to support P. cinctulus.

the area i found the the mushies in is a place under a stretch of trees about 100 yards. the cows have been shitting there for 20 years prob its all broke up and trampled in the ground there is alot of conifer trees over hanging not sure if that matters. the poo is old and dreid out and the grass there is high i did not find them anywere but in the high grass not out in the feild just manily in this one area and to my suprise i saw alot of pan foes growing never seen them either in the feild before. not many but there were some.. there was sphinctus there as well and alot of inky caps... the spores were jet black and the stems having like a twisting pattern to them.. no bluing that i n oticed.. but i was always told to twist the stem out of the myc. so not to upset the root area..

Actually, the byproduct of cow dung is not fermentation, but microbial and enzymatic action of their GI tracts. In fact, one of my biology teachers was talking about using such microbes/enzymes as a basis for an industrial ethanol production process.
Actually, what he described is rather energy/time consumptive, but still the point of nigh purely enzymatic digestion is valid.
Also,

knarkkorven said: The first time I found p. cinctulus it was on a big pile of cow dung. Look at my evidence So yes, it grows on cow dung. But more often on horse dung.
But I think tryptonite's mushrooms are foes. Compare the spore print with something that is really black, like a marker pen or coal and you will probably see that your print is very dark brown, not black.

mycot said: Just for the record I have found heaps of Pan Subbs on cow dung. More so than on any other substrate and this consistantly over a five year period. And yes I do have pics if proof is needed.
OK here are some pics, all growing on 100% bovine cowpoo. I've also found lawn subbs and subbs growing from rotting grass clippings but the ones growing from cowpoo have been much meatier getting as big as any I've seen on this board.

dickenz07 said: I am assuming youre talking about cinctulus... I find em in a pasture thats pretty much a hillside...that slopes down to flatland that the cows tend to hang out and there is about 6 inches of doo doo in most places..and thick grass/weeds..stays wet and partly shaded by the trees nearby...usually growing from the deeper thicker weeds and grass

EDIT: Oh yeah, if my cinctulus are cinctulus, my field has nothing but cows in it too.

The trees help by providing shade and the long grass is ideal for holding moisture and humidity.
