Id on this strange one?
    #22468452 - 11/02/15 08:40 PM (8 years, 2 months ago)

BEFORE READING: For some reason my camera is turning whats supposed to be blue into purple. Everything that is purple on the mushroom in the pics are supposed to be dark - light blue

Found this guy at my job today (landscaping) underneath some fir trees. Saw the blue ring around the outside on the gills and thought either maybe blue ringer or cyan? There were other mushrooms around it that looked similar, but the caps had no waves, were short and stubby and smooth concave on top, but still had the same dark blue on top and blue ring around the outside of the gills. I could have sworn I took a picture before I capped the thing, but it also had a short (about an 1 - 1 1/2 inches) thick white stem that bruised blue. The cap itself is a light brown in the center, getting a darker blue as you get to the edge. Doing a spore print tonight. This look familiar to anyone?

Maybe Cortinarius sp., those gills look a bit rusty but I can't tell if that's age or spore mass.

So if you work for a landscaping company you can hunt while you work? That's awesome. Do you guys have woodchips on the business property?

I found something similar today along a restricted path and left pins and even cut them at the stem. Filled one of those paper Starbucks bags and thought I had a cyan patch :razz:. But hey we love the mushroom and it loves us, active or not.

:mushroom2:

It could also be a clitocybe species.  A spore print will help identify it.

Yeah I'm a landscaper, so I manage properties of all different types. One of the few awesome perks of the job :smile: Lots of access to woods, wood chips, lawns, pastures, great shroom areas. I know I'm bound to find something, but I'm still fairly new to the mushroom picking. I will post the completed spore print in the morning

The spore print turned a light brown. Definitely not active. It could be a Blewit but it seems a bit wavy for how consistent ive usually seen them have a normal concaved cap. Anyway I ended up tossing the guy in my mulch bed. Better luck next time I suppose :tongue:

An even margin is not a useful diagnostic for C. nuda. Put that right out of your head. They are often lobed to wavy and become upturned with age.

The persistent rolling along the margin even when mature and turning up which is visible in yours is quite classic.

I don't know where you're getting blue from. They are a purple to pink musrhoom aging and drying brown-tan to pale creme. There is no blue present nor should there be in this case.

Please note that aside from the colors being different, this species is muchlarger and more robust than wood loving Psilocybes such as P. cyanescens and P. stuntzii.


--------------------



Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it.
If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.
