Conocybe cyanopus information request from a Colorado mycophagist
    #22151550 - 08/27/15 01:36 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Conocybe cyanopus grows in lawns, fields, grassy areas, and grows in Colorado, I have been having some trouble finding good information regarding this species...

What is its season?

What are the best weather conditions to be present before and during a search for this species?

What is the best way to determine a "good" grassy location to search through?

Pan cinct' s are the only species I have been able to locate and successfully identify...(Though mushroom hunting has only been a hobby for a few years, I've always had preference for stropharia cubensis cultivation, though recently have found much interest in the hobby of seeking out and identifying wild local fungi. (Though consumption is not the goal here, I honestly just love the search and the activity of identification, though should a 100% identity confirmed active species be collected I may not be opposed to.sampling it)

Conocybe cyanopus

Gymnopilus junonius

Panaeolus castaneifolius

Panaeolus cinctulus

Pluteus salicinus

*amanita muscaria*

All of the above occur in my state, though Conocybe cyanopus is specifically an intersest of mine, and any information on finding this species in the wild would be much appreciated…

Thank you, this is much appreciated!

I'm for sure going to keep my eye out for this species, I have a a collection of dry samples of various plants and fungi, this species would make a nice addition to my collection. Some of the plants and fungi in my collection I grew myself or found growing wild, others I purchased from various sources, but it's fairly large now and contains most of the well known entheogenic and active species.

I found a mushroom growing in similar conditions to those described for this species that I was unable to identify, any ideas on what these were? (These were placed on line paper so you can determine size, thick white stems, Gray gills turning brownish/pinkish with age, the cap was smooth golden/brown, spherical when young, forming a disc with a "nipple" when older, I apologize for my lacking in nomenclature, I know more about mushrooms than my descriptive abilities would suggest, though I'm still learning as well (though these don't look like any active species I'm familiar with I'm still curious as to their identity)
There's a piece of the gills in a space below from the lone cap.




Any ideas?

Looks like Inocybe to me.

You many want to venture over the western slope, Telluride, Durango area will probably be your best bet to find cyanopus. Even with the rains the front range so desperately needs, I don't see that species being anywhere along the front range since there has been a severe drought there for the past 20 years that just now looks to be relieving.
You may want to first check out Breckinridge-Lake Dillon area. I know my Dad would find all sorts of mushrooms(edibles). I cant remember him ever mentioning actives, but I was pretty young too. I remember finding a lot of Amanita muscaria in the woods that outskirt around lake Dillon in the fall as well.
Isnt cyanopus known to like higher altitudes?

Excellent advice!


I honestly don't know much about this conocybe species, including the altitude it prefers...

I live near Denver, but I'm frequently near brekenridge, telluride, pitkin county, etc...

Thank you again!
