Florida Panhandle ID Request
    #22498913 - 11/09/15 02:29 AM (8 years, 2 months ago)

Hello all! I am new to hunting for active shrooms, but have experienced dried actives before and have some familiarity with them. I am also new to this site and will try to follow all the posting rules and have looked at as many tips as I could get down. I realize my pictures aren't great quality, but it is all I could manage for now using a camera phone and flashlights at night. I briefly read the pic posting thread and know that my picture quality falls well short of what is requested. If anyone wants to flame at me for being a noob, I understand, but would appreciate any help in both ID'ing and constructive criticism of my posting/data gathering. Thanks!











Habitat:
Found these growing in a horse pasture, near old, rotting hay and horse dung, but not directly on either. These were found in the west/central area of the Florida panhandle. Fields have been very wet/rainy off and on for the past few weeks. Mild 60-80 deg F temps. Quite humid. Early November.

Gills:
Dark brown/black/slightly purple. Gills attached on outside of cap, with fewer extending all the way to the stem.

Stem:
~1.5 inch length stems, 0.25 inch diameter, light yellow/brownish color. Felt thick and solid, but not completely filled. Stems were stringy/thready when crushed/rolled. Had what appeared to be a small white/brown veil near cap bottom, which was fragile and easily broke off.

Cap:
~0.8-1.6 inch diameter caps, light yellow/brown/golden/white colored caps with edges becoming lighter and center darker/brown/yellow/golden. Edges of caps were slightly curled upward, not coned-shaped, but rather flat, almost bowl-shaped. Felt quite slimy, like a layer of translucent snot was on tops of caps, but it has been quite damp/wet/rainy lately.

Spore print color:
Spore print was a dark brown/black with slight purplish tint to it.

Bruising:
Did not seem to color when bruised much. Got slightly darker/brown/blackish where bruised, but had much moisture which could have contributed to slight color when bruised.

Other information:
Smelled similar to common grocery mushrooms, but with a more musky scent.

Looks like an Agrocybe sp. Better pictures (one of the spore print too) would help though.

Welcome to the Shroomery! :smile:
