Woodchip Finds. Gyms? (NC)

Wondering if I could get and Id on these two colorful beauts found in central North Carolina
Found growing out of a deep pile of woodchips. Looks to be partially composted, but pretty fresh.
The first is bright orange and seems to be dropping orange spores. has a pretty tough stem with a cap the consistency of oyster mushrooms, but perhaps a bit more brittle.




The second specimens were much more numerous and seemed to grow gregariously. They have dense, bright purple stems and caps with yellow gills. Still waiting on spore to drop from these, I'll update when they do.

Beautiful colours on your first one. I don't know Gymnopilus really well but perhaps G. liquiritae.
Your second I feel confident is G. aerigunosus.

I think they are all Gymnopilus aeruginosus. The decurrent gills, and the stems remind me of my finds. Compare.

Why not G. luteofolius?
OP, could you cut some younger ones in half so we can see the context? (inside)
Any bluish/greenish staining?

I thought the scales weren't strong enough and it didn't show up for NC on the shroomery page (or I'd be toying with G. purpuratus. Not to mention G. liquiritae isn't there but I was clutching at straws). I also thought the first lot had caps that seem too smooth and orangey to be the same species. But honestly I don't know nuffin, I will watch and learn!

I don't think that these are both the same species, they just seem far too different in shape, color, texture and size. The Purple specimens have a much thicker stem and completly different coloration.
I will attach a picture below of one cut in half. The picture was snapped only a second after the cut, so i'll post back if I see any bluing/bruising.

Looks like the context is not purple and that points in favor of G. aeruginosus.
I was not aware that the scales are different on the species, is that true?
Hesler says the microscopic features on the two species are the same, but Laura Guzman recently told me that she has been able to find microscopic differences.

That was just a recollection from looking at the Google images yesterday, that G. aerigunosus tends to have much more crowded scales and G. luteofolius has these quite broad ones. It might not be consistent or definitive.
Apart from the ones in my friend's tank (that I still want someone to scope) the only Gyms I have found are our local G. junonius that are not blueing (and that I haven't yet put to the test) so expect me to be potentially talking crap here.

I would not trust the people who upload pics that get indexed by google images to be able to accurately identify species in that group. In fact there is only one person in the world that I would trust to be able to ID species in that group. And she does not post much stuff to the internet.
Regarding G. junonius, remember that it is a much smaller species than G. spectabilis.

Perhaps the taxon needs dividing further. My most recent books have G. spectabilis as a defunct name, so I guess British mycologists aren't presently accepting any distinction. But there is this further anomaly with European G. junonius/spectabilis not bluing.

G. junonius and G. spectabilis are both European names and it is likely that in the US we need new names.
G. junonius is a medium sized Gymnopilus, while G. spectabilis is quite large.

Thanks. As I work on improving my microscopy it will be something I hope to understand a lot better before long, and maybe then I'll have something useful to report on the mess at our end.

Joie and Alan, first of all, thank you so much for your in depth discussion on this ID, I am glad to know others are as interested as myself on this endeavor.
After 4 hours, the split mushroom looks mostly the same except for one spot. While the rest of the mushroom looks the same, spite some minor dehydration, the base of the mushroom, especially where the mycellium was pulled away from the wood-chip substrate is definitely showing some bluing. It is dark now, so I will take another picture tomorrow in sunlight and see if the coloration continues.
Also, the cluster of mushrooms I picked today was only the most mature of numerous others in the wood pile, so I will continue to watch the others and see how they develop into maturity and see if that will shed any more light for the ID. Thanks a lot for the conversation fellas.

I found some like that too, about a month ago in texas. Did yours bruise at all. Mine had small blue spots on caps a few hours after picking. Check them out under my user. Mine were like the purple texture ones you found. They were various sizes. Pins start out red, then purple, then when fully mature they turn yellow and lose most of the texture.

 Google Images is full of so many Misidentified mushrooms... never rely on a google image search... but sometimes its a handy place to start.... but never should it end there.

Very excited by the discussion here, it seems like the gymnopilus group deserves a much closer look. The more I look at my copy of Mushrooms Demystified, I am thinking they are under G. luteofolius based on cap coloration, spore color, gill structure and questionable activity (based off close relation to G. aeruginosus according to Arora) As I said earlier, I will report back definitively on the spore prints of both 'types' I OP'd tomorrow when they have had time to drop.
Luckily the patch is close to home, so I will take some habitat/development shots tomorrow, and we can see how the patch matures and get a better idea of what we have here. If is does come up as something unique (even if only for the BEAUTIFUL purple color) I can readily put a clone to agar or pull spore prints etc.

Keep us updated. I'm trying to cultivate the ones I found. This is the first time I'm trying to grow so we will see how it goes. I visited the spot about a week later where I found them (even thou I left 5 or so pins there) they are no longer growing there. I hope they come back or my grow works out.

G. aeruginosus, or what Bloodworm ID'd as such from my collections. These are all over the southeast US on woodchips. They start off a very striking purplish-red color, and mature to a more golden yellow-orange. Not very potent but still active I suppose.

Awesome! Are they on/in woodchips as well? Can you figure out what type of wood or if it is a mix maybe? I think the chips I find them in are mixed hardwood/pine.

Yes they lose color as I mentioned before.
Paracelsus, yours look different than the ones I find here. Much thicker stem. Makes me wonder if the ones I find in texas are a mutation or vise versa.
I would like to see more research about the sp.
When I found mine I researched and found people who were growing the same genre.
I agree they are not very potent. I took 6 grams dry and had little effects.

Yes they are on wood chips as well. Not sure of the type of wood. If I guess it would be native mulch so most likely pine.

Went back to the patch today to pick a clone specimen and got a habitat shot for you. I also have a picture of the spore prints, which while kind of hard to discern, have me thinking they may in fact be the same species just very young and old specimens respectively. The older of the two dropped prodigious spores, while the younger was quite a bit more withholding, so it is hard to tell if the coloring is the same or not. Might try putting it in photoshop to see if it can ID the hues. Take a look and let me know what you think!

I think those chips are a mix. Notice you can discern at least two colors of woodchip, and then there are needles in the mix as well. I assume your collection(s) are all aeruginosus.

She has been working on Gymnopilus longer than you have been alive...
Regarding G. aeruginosus, maybe the issue is that I do not know how to identify it. The descriptions in Hesler are almost the same and the differences I don't really find to be all that convincing.
What are the differences between the two taxa?
Have you been able to find any microscopic differences between the two?

What are the differences between the two taxa?
Have you been able to find any microscopic differences between the two?
really??
i was born in 1981, it's 2013... i would expect to see something after 32 years of study...

I Promise before tomorrow sets in I will look at my collections and see if i can help probably not, but who knows.

There are quite a few species in that clade and they can be difficult to tell apart. Gymnopilus luteofolius is one option. That usually has purplish shades in the context when you cut it open.
I think your gyms are active, did you notice any bluegreen staining?

YES. THEY HAD SMALL SPOTS ON THE CAPS. I ATE 6 GRAMS DRIED AND THEY WERE NOT VERY STRONG.
AMONG THE MUSHROOMS I FOUND THERE WERE A FEW OLD ROTTEN CAPS. AS THEY AGE THEY START AT A RED/PURPLE/YELLOW THEN TURN ALMOST COMPLETELY YELLOW

I DID NOT EAT THESE. I AM TRYING TO USE THEM FOR CLONING!

So i poured over my gym collections today, i thought that the subhymenium could be different between the two species, but looking at all the features, at least today, i found no differences in my collections.

Which collections did you compare and what did you loook at?
The subhymenium is indeed very important in Gymnopilus, and is something that Hesler overlooked. Sometimes it is ramose and other times more globose.

You are not going to get very far with this genus if you disparage people who have done ten thousand times more work with it than you have. You need to recognize that you are a noob. Maybe in 5 to 20 years, if you stick with it, you will be able to contribute something of substance. You do not seem to be able to answer my most basic questions. I wish you tons of luck.

Interesting, I Looked at my Luteofolius log and the promising aeruginosus i found, im not sure if i just missed it though, its really difficult for me to see, I will upload the pics real quick...
