Found more liberty caps, need help to identify
    #22235537 - 09/14/15 07:04 AM (8 years, 4 months ago)

I just found my first liberty caps earlier today, and after getting them identified i got out to the grass field where i found them for more. I think i have mastered the art of identifying liberty caps, but i want som help just to be sure.

There is some blue bruising on some of them. The two biggest are the ones i am most uncertain about, because they have almost a flat cap, with a nipple on top.

Most of these look alot like the ones i got identified earlier, but i just want to make 100 % sure i am right.







Thanks again for your help :smile:

Hello there! Good-looking haul. Can't say with 100% certainty given the clarity of the pictures ,however, they do sometimes have a much broader cap. The easiest way to tell when you have one that doesn't quite match your expectations in terms of cap shape is to note the colour/moisture relationship, libs are hygrophanous (should be a kind of dirty olive green when wet drying to a kind of straw/buff colour) but most importantly when wet try and peel the edge of the cap back, you should find a see-through, mucus-like skin called a pellicle. This is a really important feature if all other macro-features add up. Something worth testing for as you pick though rather than later. Helped me out when I've seen a strange-looking one.

From what I can see these are all libs my friend :thumbup:

The ones with a flat cap are also of the psilosybe family, some say they are not semilanceata, possibly p.strictipes, but I always considered them Libs. I have picked and consumed these flat-heads on a few occasions and they are definitely psycho-active, so that's what matters. Next time you find some in the grass take note of how they tend to grow very close to the more standard looking libs.

Should always do a spore print
Always

Need to make sure you inspect every mushroom too, so we'll done it questioning the larger ones.

If you have any doubt, throw it out

But visually, looks like liberty caps to me
Habitat seems good for liberty caps

Where in the world are the you?

Hmm... some of them look like libs some not... hard to tell from these pics.
Do a spore prints if it's possible.
The ones that bruise blue at the bottom of the stem are libs :smile:
