Think these are Liberty Caps, could do with a hand ID-ing.
    #23485594 - 07/28/16 12:16 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

Habitat:
In a field that sheep use to graze on, is now used for exercising animals. Short grasses, not many trees about. Found in Northern Ireland. I've found a few here before but the weather recently seems to have helped them flourish, there was fully grown ones and a few babies I left in hope that they'll be more to return to.

Gills:
Light brown tan colour, very dirty so hard to tell.

Stem:
Thin long stems, ranging from an inch - 2 inches.

Cap:
Browney tan colour, lighter IRL than in photos.

Spore print color:
Awaiting this now

Other information:
They smell and look like Liberty caps that I've had before, most have the nipple everyone raves about. Some are still opening and have more of a hood, while the others are almost flat caps with the nipple in the middle.

I've been told Liberty's grow in this area by an experienced picker, hoping to take them this weekend after drying if anyone could help a brother out.

Cheers!

Any suggestion as to what they might be?
What do you see that shows you they're not libs, so I disqualify better?

The shape of the cap, the fat ass pale stems, the lack of a nipple. I think those might be Psathyrella, but that's a numb guess.

Is the middle of the mushroom in the third photo a nipple or am I looking for something more prominent?

Thanks for the quick replies, reading a wee bit about the appearance of young Psathyrella I think it's possible that's what they are. There were very tiny orange caps growing nearby, almost impossible to tell it was a mushroom without looking closely so that may be Psathyrella then.

If Psathyrella are growing in this field am I likely to find Libertys near by? Or was the "experienced" picker just mistaken in his ID-ing.

Yes, a more prominent nipple, strong flexible stems (usually twisted), sticky cap when wet. Like these...


They're only that colour if it's rained recently.
If it's been dry they will be a cream/white cap and dark gills.


They can grow as big as this in the right habitat, but this is quite rare...


Probably not even worth looking yet because it's still too warm, but since you're new to this it can't hurt getting out there to familiarise yourself with other mushrooms. Good luck.
