ID request, possible psilocybe

Habitat: Wetland grass. Near highway and potato farm. Found in Skagit Valley, WA in October 2014, and Richmond, CA in December 2014. CA specimens found in new, healthy grass.
Spore print color: Violet, purple
Bruising: Possibly blue, most likely dark from being soggy though.
I forget most of the details, since it's been over six months. Shame on me for not taking the time to post earlier. But I'd like to know for this next season.

Any bluing? Possibly a Deconica sp.?
-------------------- Pain is temporary. It may last for a minute or an hour or a day or even a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it will last forever.

Wait, so are the photos all the same observation or not? Which ones are from WA and which ones are from CA?

I think the color of the annular zone (i.e. spores) looks a bit dull-greyish to be Psilocybe or Deconica.
If the colors do justice that is. A gill shot would probably help.

Yes, a gill shot would be very helpful. All of these are from washington. The CA pics ended up on the bottom of the ocean on my return trip. The CA's had no different characteristics. If my memory serves me correct, and take this with a grain of salt, the gills were tan. Both patches had more mature specimens that were light tan in the cap, although not dried out. I will check iCloud for more pics.
Thank you very much for the quick responses. This mushroom has been haunting me, as it is the only one from last year I am yet to identify. In other news I found a giant patch of pan subs the other day. Yes, jet black prints.

Could it possibly be P. allenii?

I was hoping allenii. Like I said the spores were purple, which is what made me think it isn't galerina. And, it almost looks like bruising in the base. However, I have not run across many galerina. So what do I really know? Has anyone seen this little guy around before?

Hey anglerfish, I notice the gills are visible in one of the pics. And it looks like bluing at the base to me. What do you think? Also, there was a purple annular zone on most of them. The big one in the pic is actually just a break. And I took a print that was violet/purple. So should I be looking at deconica sp? Thank you for your response.

You are sure right, however with color differences in cameras the point is moot. It was violet/purple, however not purple/brown. And like I said, my old phone is at the bottom of the ocean; with all the pics.

Thank you all for your responses. Especially with so little to go off. This fall, maybe they will return and I can gather more info. Alan Rockefeller, wow. I am honored to have you respond. Thank you all for your time.
