Can anyone with more experience identifying this seemingly hallucinogenic mushroom I found in Brasil in the mountain near Rio de Janeiro? Unfortunately I did not have a willing test subject nor the chance to collect the spores, what a lost... 

Habitat: In the mountain area in Rio de Janeiro. There were cows and cow dumps in the particular field. These appears to be growing on the grassy field.
Gills: Color, attached/not, gills/pores, etc.
Stem: About 7~10cm tall with thin stem, white color.
Cap: Very narrow small cap size. It appears to be white and conical.
Spore print color: Very important! None available...
Bruising: Color that the mushroom bruises, if any.
Other information: Scent of the mushroom, anything else you think is important, large close-up pictures showing stem, cap and gills.

Conocybe albipes.
Google for "which mushrooms grow in my area" to see the list of psilocybin mushrooms that grow in Brasil. There quite a few cool ones, including P. brasiliensis which grows at high elevation.

Well, they certainly look like so. Wiki says it's toxic, but doesn't say which type. Another site states this, "some Conocybe species are known to contain the same deadly toxins that make the Deathcap Amanita phalloides such a terribly toxic toadstool."
