Liberty Cap Look Alike?
#22426645 - 10/24/15 10:56 AM (8 years, 3 months ago) |

Habitat: NW Portland area; grassy area on west side of hill; 1100 ft elevation
Gills: See pics
Stem: About 1/8" thick and 4-5" long; very thin after drying
Cap: About 1" diameter and 3/4" tall; conical;after drying there was a nipple on top center; nipple wasn't noticeable when it was fresh
Spore print color: Mostly black; may have slight purple tint; I captured 2 pics in different light to see if others think it has a purple tint...
Bruising: None was obvious to me
Other information: At first I thought this was a liberty cap, but then I noticed it didn't have a nipple on top. But after drying a nipple appeared.
Also I think the spore print has a purple tint, but maybe its just wishful thinking.
Appreciate any help to ID this LBM.

I was going to post another ID request on some other LBM's but they have the same description above... Except these don't have the nipple after drying. Are these pics below the same lawn mower's mushroom too?

yes they look like pan foes, these do not have a psilocybe look to them you might want to double check lib discriptions.
however you may find pan cincts around where youre looking, they look very very very close to pan foes BUT they will spore print JET BLACK!! not even a slight hint of brown, you can test this with a black sharpie to compare the prints
pan cincts also have a slightly darker or more reddish color stem then pan foes, and IME i have notices pan cincts seem to feel more sturdy/solid then the pan foes.
Another dead give away is the gills on the pan cincts will be very dark, black/greyish as the fruit is more mature. some younger specimens of pan cints might have chocolate colored gills but they will almost always be much darker then pan foes

Probably. A spore print would confirm.

Thanks for the tips. I went back and checked the prints after adjusting angle of the lighting both sets were brownish. Appatently I am getting better at finding foes.
