More dung and nearby growers
    #17501106 -

Habitat:
Growing on a field on soil, the field had lots of horse dung but this one didn't appear to be growing directly from it. It was growing near a conifer forest so the ground was filled with needles but there was no actual tree in a few good meters.

Gills:
They were adnexed, and appeared to be brownish but with lots of black spore deposit (I don't know if I'll get any luck with the spore print)

Stem:
Probably about 12 cm long and 1/1,5cm wide, it had stripes (?) until the ring, the rest of it was pale/cream, I broke it when removing it so there's no base.
The walls were very thick but when I cut the cap I noticed it was hollow.

Cap:
About 6 cm in diameter, very shinny (appeared as it would be sticky but it wasn't) while dry, yellow brownish in color and convex.

Spore print color:
I'm taking it but I assume black spores due to the preexisting deposit.

Bruising:
I didn't notice any particular bruising when handled or when I cut it's stem :sad:

Other information:
Smelled shroomy :shrug:














Habitat:
This one was actually growing out of horse dung.

Gills:
It's gills were light brown (like coffee and milk), I can't really tell the attachment, I was thinking about cutting it after I take the spore print.

Stem:
About 8 cm, pale cream with a mark of a ring, thin (probably 0,5cm) thick but hollow.
The base was bulbous in shape.

Cap:
1 or 2 cm in diameter, cream colored, conical to bell-shaped.

Spore print color:
still taking it

Bruising:
Again no particular bruising.

Other information:
I though about Panaeolus sp, there were some pretty old specimens rotting nearby, I can't really tell if they were the same species due to their degradation.

Stropharia semiglobata for both.

I didn't know they could get so big, the one I had previously found was very small in height and cap diameter.

Thanks, not my lucky day then :mad:

1-2 centimeter cap diameter isn't really that big for this species. 
It is so common it is almost intimidating. I see quite huge ones all the time.

No, I wasn't talking about the small one, but the 1st was about 6 cm in cap diameter and 12 cm in height.
I have found this species for the first time this year and the specimen I found previously was about 4 cm in height so it was pretty smaller.

They can get bigger than that. This is one of the most common mushrooms in pasture habitats in the North America. People mistake them for Ps. cubensis fairly often.

when I saw it that big I did think Psilocybe, although excluded it when I saw no bruising
