ID opinion: Ovoids or Allenii?
    #20865229 - 11/20/14 12:08 PM (9 years, 2 months ago)

This is definitely an active wood loving psilocybe.

Allenii is very common in the surrounding areas, so it's very possible that these are allenii. However, there is reason to believe that these could be ovoids.  An underdog's chance, but real possibility nonetheless, especially since ovoids have a reputation as an aggressive colonizer.

Most of the allenii in the area have smoother caps, while this group has slightly more pronounced "humps" on their caps.  The color seems a bit off (lighter, not as brown, more "greyish") compared the allenii too, but I know there's a lot of room for variation within a species because sun bleaching and other factors.

So anyway, if any ovoid experts out there have an opinion, I would much appreciate it.  Which active wood loving psilocybe do you think this is, Allenii or Ovoid? (pics below)

Thanks,
Norcal

Had trouble with the crappy camera, hopefully you can still get an idea even though the color is off:

Yes, bay area, thanks.  The reason I even wondered if they were ovoids is because of an attempt to start ovoids earlier this year that didn't seem to go that well, but it could have been enough to start colonizing.

I am not familiar with Alenii, but I am with ovoids and they definitely look like ps. ovoidoacystadiata. I would certainly wait to hear from a TI that is more familiar with Alenii though.

Yes there would be a cortinal veil creating a membranous ring around the stipe if it were ovoideocystidiata
