Don't worry, not eating those, found about 15 cyans which are far easier to identify and that's plenty for me. They do look a lot like some allenis I found last year in the same spot. I'm not a risk taker when it comes to consuming things I find tho. :-)

Went on a hunt yesterday for 3 hours and found 7 cyan making 12 grams total. Lots of look alike patches and red indicators scattered. Plus Lots of random mushrooms.
 
Unfortunately one big one got half eaten by bugs before I made it into tea for tomorrow night as a booster after I eat the others.

This morning I saw a big bag of fresh Psilocybe cyanescens that a friend found in SF yesterday, and another friend found a whole lot of Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata in San Mateo the other day. Season is on.
Also several other friends found a lot of Boletus edulis var. grandedulis in the past couple days, and also lots of edible Agaricus.

I disagree, but without seeing the stems its pretty much pointless to argue.

Possible, its kind of hard to tell, the ones you linked are certainly not A. putaminum, were they found in CA?

Just curious, but what active mushrooms would be fruiting at this point in the season?
I assume cyanescens and allenii are almost done since winter is just about done, but I would like to hear from others.

There are Psilocybe cyanescens and P. ovoideocystidiata out right now in the bay area. P. allenii is done fruiting.

Interesting...I always assumed Psilocybe cyanescens didn't fruit in Spring, but I guess I'm wrong.
I assume this means the Bay Area has three Spring actives in ovoideocystidiata, cyanescens, and subaeruginascens?

The one that we were calling P. subaeruginascens turned out to be P. ovoideocystidiata.
Other actives that are fruiting in the bay area right now include Gymnopilus luteofolius and Pluteus salicinus. Neither of those species actually occurs in California but that's what we have been calling them so I'll keep using those names as to not confuse people.
As it warms up, Panaeolus cinctulus becomes quite common, it's super rare in the winter when it is cold.

I thought the two species were synonymous?

Hard to say, the type collection of P. subaeruginascens is in very bad shape. The DNA does match 100% between the two species, but that's only a couple hundred base pairs of one locus.

I see. Well that really sucks that the subaeruginosa type collection is so poor.
I'd love to go to Japan and pick a whole bunch of subs for comparison to U.S. ovoids. I guess there is still much to learn about these two species.
