Also noticed that some of them dried to look like this:



Is this what mushrooms look like after they've deposited a spore load?

Could be Hypholoma marginatum - do you have any pics of them before they dried?

I don't think they resemble that species much, to be completely honest.

Zooming in on a few of those in the first picture, I believe I perceive some blueing on the stem.

I might be wrong. But as already stated, please provide pictures of fresh specimens.

Thanks for the perspective. Unfortunately there are no pictures available of fresh specimens.

There is bluing on the stem which becomes obvious with adequate lighting. Despite not having a picture of a fresh specimen, the bluing, coupled with the spore print, and the fact that they look like other dried (positively identified) Cyans leads me to think they're cyans.

Thanks again!

Well, since it is next to impossible to identify dried mushrooms, you've really only got two options.

1) Keep an eye on the spot you found these, and take good in situ shots of the fresh mushrooms, should they occur.

2) Get microscopy and/or DNA-sequencing of the ones you have here.
