Could it be Mycena subcaerulea?

This is the first time I have tried to identify any mushrooms(so real amateur) so if there is any further information I can provide that might help I will be more than happy do so.

This looks potentially interesting. I bet if you changed the subject to something like "blue-bruising Mycena-like mushroom: please ID!", you'd get more responses from TIs...

Looks like a good candidate for Mycena amicta.

inski will be along shortly, I'm sure, to confirm this or not.........

Awesome. They look like two different species in the last pic.

Thanks everyone, an interesting discussion, I didnt realise how much there was to know about mushrooms, its really interesting, I think I might get a microscope so I can look at their spores too!.

I changed the subject as per Coens recommendation.

So are they Mycena amicta? and if so are they poisonousness or psychedelic?  I cant seen to find much info on them

Probably. Needs microscopy to be sure.

Nobody really knows. There's no published reports stating they contain Psilocin and only anecdotal reports from a few people. One of those people is a nut case. Some species of Mycena contain muscarine and could be poisonous.

None of the other blue-bruising Mycena species have been shown to be active either. There was a video (I believe someone posted on this forum awhile back, but I am not certain) of a reality type show where some restaurateurs went out to collect edibles with a "guide". The edibles they were picking were legit if memory serves, but said "guide" found what appeared to be blue-staining Mycena, and was confidently identifying them as "magic mushrooms." It seems like he might have said that they were Psilocybe quebecensis, but I may be remembering that wrong due to the fact that they were in or near that species' range.

Thanks for all your help.  I have another mushroom found at the same location (but very different looking) that I will ask for your help with but I will create a new thread and need to organise the photos and description!:thumbup:
