Stropharia sp.?
    #22392971 - 10/17/15 11:47 AM (8 years, 3 months ago)

Hi,

Would you think this is Stropharia pseudocyanea? As far as I know (and my knowledge on this genus is very limited) S. aeruginosa and coerulea are more commonly found in woodlands (and this was was found in grasslands). Also the stem of the specimen is quite thin.

Here are the pictures (I could not take any pictures in the field, in daylight, and with good camera; here's the best I could achieve with a cell phone, and artificial light):



Morphology:
1.Cap: diameter x height: 3 x 1 cm; broadly umbonate, in-curved margin; dry; yellow to greenish/blue; separable pellicle?
2.Gills: close/sub-distant; seceding (but could have been torn from the stem due to careless handling)
3.Stem: 8 x 0.5 cm; flexuose; greenish/blue; tough.
4.Veils: no veil/remnants of veil
5.Spores: no info yet
6.Habit: abandoned grasslands that could have been grazed by sheep in the past
7.Other: Was unambiguously greenish/blue before handling; UK, 17 Oct 2015

Thanks.

Definitely looks like a Stropharia species

Yes, it's the species you said, or something closely-related.

As for being more common in woodlands, the only time I found Stropharia aeruginosa was in a field full of horses.
