Habitat: found it in a local wood, clustered underneath ferns and other cover - never out in the open, England
Gills: white gills
Stem: varying, though max about 5-10cm, 1-2mm wide, beige, smooth, hollow with a whitish liquid seeping once picked
Cap: varying between about 5mm to 2cm, beige with dark brown "tip" - fading to a white at the very edge frills, smooth
Spore print color: clear? i pressed a cap against a peice of paper - just made a wet print of the gills
Bruising: none really
Other information: no sense of smell - so can't say





picked a load just incase they are indeed what i hope they are 
thankyou all for your expertise in advance

"Mycena cyanorrhiza stains blue and contains the hallucinogen psilocybin"

Yes, those are not psychoactive. I believe any psychoactive Mycenas will also have a white print, but I may be wrong. I suspect active ones are rather rare.

you have to let the cap sit on the paper for a few hours, or more for a more defined print. Give it more time and see if there's a difference?

Since they have a white print, you may want to do them on black paper. A few hours ought to be long enough.

Depends where you live, i've found 1610 liberty caps already throughout august.

With each containing one of the following: Cyanide... Psilocin... Would you take the risk? Didn't think so. This is why Positive Identification prior to consumption is important.

1610?? damn! send me some wahaha
i've decided to go back and check again in more remote areas - it's a popular shroom spot so i fear all the "easy pickings" have been taken  i'm midwest UK if that changes anything on the time they'll grow?
