IMPORTANT: The only 2 I believe are psychedelic are the gold capped and purple ones, the others I just want to know what they are as they look like common species around here. Here's the ones I'm not providing a description for:


Habitat: Found all of these while hiking a near by park after a day of rain, found growing from the ground usually near trees or near the base of trees.
Gills: There's multiple species I'm hoping to get identified, the purpleish shrooms have that same light purple/off white gills. The gold cap looking ones have white/tannish gills. *NOTE* I'm doing only these 2 as they're the only ones I brought back with me, others seem like very common species and non-psychedelic.
Stem: Purpleish shrooms have very short stems probably about an inch maybe 1.5 inches, but have the same light purple/ off white stem color. Gold capped shrooms have very straight stems with longer dimensions of about 2-3 inches. BOTH stems are not hollow, or from what I can tell, I don't know if hollow has a looser meaning when it comes to this as there is space in the stems but not completely hollow.
Cap: Purple shrooms have a light purple cap, that gets even lighter in the middle. Gold capped shrooms have a brownish gold cap that fades from the middle outwards.




Spore print color: wut
Bruising: Purple shroom seems to bruise kind of white Golden shrooms seem to bruise with a brown
Other information: I believe my pictures are pretty good, so hopefully we can identify some.

None are psychedellic.
The first may be Armillaria. If so they should produce a white spore print. I suppose they could be Pholiota as well. Pholiota should have brown spores, and the cap would likely be viscid if you wet your finger and rubbed it's surface. There are likely other possibilities.
The last are Clitocybe nuda, or one of the other blewits.

I would say the first one are some sort of Honey mushroom Armillaria sp. You can see what appears to be that greenish tint on the stalk they get the second one Colybia or Gonopus maybe Clitocybula familia. The two center ones are brown mushroom not good pics mabe lepotia and the last two Lipista nuda or Blewit

Lepista is to my knowledge still deprecated. The blewits are Clitocybe. The specific name 'nuda' is not capitalized.

There's surely some validity in invoking the name even if it isn't convention, because the taxon, however impure, has not been replaced or refined but absorbed into a very impure genus. Certainly easier than "a Clitocybe sp. formerly known as Lepista" and more accurate than "Clitocybe sp.".

That is a pretty good point.

But if we just call them Blewits then we all know what we are talking about no confusion. Here is where the common name finnaly trumps the latin name. lol

Thank you all for such quick replies, the species are matching up after doing some research.
