P. Cubensis ID - SE Qld
    #21030688 - 12/27/14 02:59 AM (9 years, 4 months ago)

Hi All,

After reading the many interesting posts around here I ventured off into a paddock and found what look like Psilocybe Cubensis. As this was my very first hunt I would be very appreciative if someone could help to positively ID this mushroom. They closely resemble many of the other cube photos on this website, just a bit older and more weathered.

Habitat:
Growing in cow dung, in a grassy cow paddock, near the treeline of a creek, in railway town on the Sunshine Coast hinterland.

Gills:
Dark brown/black. Adnexed? I'm not really up on the nomenclature here.

Stem:
About 2 inches long, white, fibrous, solid.

Cap:
About 2 inch diameter, dirty white with a gold centre, almost flat


Spore print color:
Blackish. As per the photo. Edit: on second thoughts maybe it's more purplish than black.

Bruising:
Blue bruising at the bottom of the stem where I picked it, and near the top of the cap where I cut the stem free to make the spore print.

Other information:
Hopefully the photos tell you everything you need to know. Apologies in advance for the sub-par image quality, and thank you for your time.

Psilocybe cubensis. The spore print is actually purple, and you can see spore deposits on the caps.

Wow that was fast. Thanks for the help. Out of interest, what is the correct terminology for how the gills attach to the cap here?

Adnate to adnexed to sometimes seceding attachment, close, narrow to slightly wider towards the center, at first pallid to gray, becoming dark purplish to blackish in age, somewhat mottled, edges remaining whitish.


I did not just copy that from Wikipedia.
