So these are just from an iphone, so there are depth of field and focus issues.  I should point out that the pic of the smallest mushroom that wasn't included in the initial ID Request had these cool beads of golden liquid clinging to the annulus ring.  Very cool structure.

And yet they are many times better than the average picture members with the same phone post.

:laugh::thumbup:

I suspect those are A. californicus (admittedly in part because every promising Agaricus I find in this state in grass turns out to be), but that is a guess. How do the bases of the stipes smell when you crush them a little?

Cool.  Thanks for your help, xfsketch (and all y'all). :rockon:

Upon further reading in Mushrooms Demystified, Agaricus Campestris seems like a great fit/guess! These mushies are not staining yellow and when ya cut through the stem there is a white cavity that has a different texture then the encircling outer stem tissue.

canid. . . what are "stipes?"  :confused:

Oh. . .giving the stipes a pinch, the general smell becomes stronger, but doesn't seem any different than how the mushrooms smell generally.  I also have terrible sense of smell.

In a muhsroom, the stipe is the https://www.google.com/search?q=stipe

:wink:

anyway, if there is no yellow staining at all and no amount of any nauseating chemical smell, then that is promising.

Not nessesarily. I take a pretty simplistic approach to semi-identifying most Agaricus from grass, and it is certainly non-expert.

Compare to Agaricus chart on this page

Looks like D.
arvensis

Well; while OP says no bruising, there does appear to be browning discoloration in the stipe.

Could be worth cutting one in cross section and scraping the edge of a knife blade along the cut surface.

I guess that it doesn't really smell good, and the more I smell these mushies the more I get like  :puke:'

The weird thing is that the bigger mushrooms don't have any distinctly yellow color, but the one smaller specimen does have yellow staining around the edge of the cap.

Thanks for your help everyone!

What should I be looking for?  The places where I cut through the stipe are very pinkish brown now.

In short, you're looking for a brown bruising (or at the very least, a non yellow bruising) Agaricus absent of any harsh chemical smell reminiscent of library paste or copier toner.

Sometimes this smell is hard to detect until you seriously abuse the flesh of the mushroom, and is sometimes concentrated in the stipe. It also sometimes does not come out until you start to cook them.

Pink/brown staining is a good sign.

Really good tips canid....I have a hard time with nailing Agaricus down.
