Identification Needed Inner Melbourns
    #14471517 - 05/18/11 02:25 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Hi guys, this is my first mushroom hunt.

All these were found in a inner Melbourne park area under gumtrees with tan bark/mulch underneath.

These first ones were quite dry when I got to them. Stem is hollow. Gills dark brown. No blue bruising. Waiting on spore print. Probably none due to dryness!



This second batch is a bit more interesting you can see two types, a whiter mushroom which seem to have blue colouring around the bottom of the gills. When I snipped a couple of these with scissors of course, the stems and the caps have blue bruising on them. No spore print from these yet.

The second darker brown type, bruises brown and spore print has come out dark brown. My powers of deduction are telling me inactive. 





The final picture of have for you seems to be the most popular one popping up all over the area. From all the pictures/descriptions I've read I'm guessing no active. Just wondering what it is!



Thanks everyone! For a first time poster I hope I have been descriptive enough. Photos were done on an Iphone on the way to work so sorry about quality. Cheers

First species looks like leratiomyces ceres, the ones with the more fragile stems look like a psathyrella species.

Thanks koraks, any ideas on the lighter colour ones from the second and third pictures that bruise blue? Cheers

I'm not sure; at first glance, they look like psathyrella gracilis or something similar, but those shouldn't bruise blue. Any chance of some better pics of those, and of the bluing reaction? Use the macro feature on your camera (if it has one) to get the focus right.

They have been sitting there for two hours now and the blue has started to go black almost. Have to head off to a dinner now but after that I will use the macro on the camera to see if I can get some better shots.

The little ones had quite a blue tinge to them when I picked them. Will head back tomorrow and use a real camera to see if I can get some decent shots.

Thanks for your help!

I see no blue bruising. All I see is Leratiomyces ceres and some Psathyrella species.

Well, I can see something that looks like a greenish tinge to the cap margins, but we need some pics that are in focus to see what's actually going on. Keep us posted!
