Conocybe Cyanopus?
    #21921746 - 07/09/15 08:27 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

I'm as novice as they come to hunting so I appreciate any guidance in the right direction. I found a few clusters of this along a SW Michigan trail and it's been the most promising find yet. Everything I collected seemed to be early on in growth so I left a few to mature and check back in on. My best (un)educated guess is that it's baby c. Cyanopus but it could just as easily be something else.

Habitat:
Found along the edges of a trail in mostly dirt at the base of a steep incline.

Gills:
White, very slight tannish color. Plentiful, closely spaced, and connect to the very top of the stem.

Stem:
All stems were roughly 2 inches long. White. Stringy consistency like celery.

Cap:
Roughly a cm. Initially a dark, slightly reddish brown but the color is becoming lighter from the top down as it dries. Conical.

Spore print color:
In progress, though it doesn't seem to be yielding much of a print.

Bruising:
No discernible bruising







Edit: Further research steers me pretty confidently away from Cyanopus.

I am pretty sure that is not them.  I had a great 'visitation' of them that really got me into this.  They are strikingly beautiful.  And this ain't them...sorry?

Hah, you're forgiven. I don't expect much on my 4th day out hunting. I'm sure it's not cyanopus due to the lack of bruising. I don't think it's grown enough to be distinct enough for anyone to confidently identify really.

Some kind of Psathyrella.
