Nice and fresh, too! Not slug-eaten, buggy, or half-rotten.

Ime theirsii have a much more pointy pin and fade to a yellow orange around the brim much faster. Also theirsii will not show any signs of bruises. Luteofolius will almost always have one specimen displaying blue green discoloration.
I've also noted that luteofolious dry to a nice golden brown, those that are more purple retain that hue, theirsii on the other hand all dry very dark like chocolate brown.
I've found both species in both alder and fir chips and both growing from fir logs. Once both species in same giant pile of chips. After drying was the only way I could tell them apart
I wish I had pics of the dry ones to share but here's a good comparison imo
These I believe are g. Theirsii

And these to be g. luteofolius.

The blue green discoloration is the biggest tell fresh, often there's just a blue freckle. But the theirsii in person just feel different a lil too kinda slimier if that makes sense.
I've never eaten theirsii because of the warning and known lack of activity, but luteofolius have never caused discomfort other than the part when you have to chew. Like eating a moldy lemon wedge.
I'd compare the pnw specimens I've collected with the potency of weak cubes. Like an eighth for level 2. Powder in capsules makes it much easier... But they also cause a sedative effect and in some cases I've experienced strange random sexual arousal after ingesting.
That's just my thoughts on the subject.
Alan seems to know them pretty well maybe ask him?

Some serious green bruising on a g. Luteofolious where pinched off.

Was minutes after harvest, fastest darkest bruising I've ever seen on a gym

Hi. I love gyms. I was so happy to find this thread. Illinois can be a challenging state for this type of hunting. I want to spread some hope for the other Illinois folks though. So far this is the only one I've got photos of, but there have been others. Pickings have been slim, but finally, a month after having found this big boy I believe I've spied another on a log in the same yard. Now it's just a matter of waiting. It's still on the small side and there is only one (wth?). Definitely active though and most certain it's Junonius. Odd habit though. It seems everyone else finds them in clusters. So I'm gonna wait and see; let it grow and hope some nice super powered green pins start popping up next to it. Please wish me luck in my quest guys! Thanks!
