Found hundreds and hundreds of these growing at a park in Auckland, NZ.

Habitat: They were growing in the dense woodchips and rotting leaves falling from the shrubs.


Gills: White, with linear defined gills, no veils obviously prominent.


Stem: 1"-2" in length, white/red stems, hollow on the insides.


Cap: Red, sometimes browning a little at the peaks. 1"-2" diameter. Caps are very irregularly shaped, not perfectly round by any means.


Bruising: Bruises sort of a reddish color.




Also found one single one of these growing nearby, the cap was very conical with a weird purplish hue to it. I tried to see if it bruised blue, but it wouldn't bruise at all, so I put it back.

Anybody know whay these are and if they might be an indication of a good habitat for actives?

First one looks like Leratiomyces ceres, the second one somekind of coprinoid maybe.

You're lookin in the right kind of places if you're finding Leratiomyces ceres [the first ones] but theyre not the kind you're looking for. Also you're looking extremely late, it would be rare to find anything worth keeping at the moment, not impossible but rare.

Yeah bro, any non-active species of mushroom that grows in woodchips can be called an "indicator species" of active wood decomposing species (AKA wood lovers), like Psilocybe subaeruginosa, Psilocybe subsecotioides, Psilocybe makarorae, to list three examples, and there are few other wood loving species that occur in NZ. :wink:

Those red ones, however, are Leratiomyces ceres, the most common "indicator species" there is, those big red fuckers are nothing special, they are the most common non-active wood lovers one will encounter, if you find Leratiomyces ceres, you are on the right track and you are checking the correct type of substrate.
So yes, it's a given that you are checking the correct substrate, good one. :super:

I haven't found any Subs lately but came across heaps of Leratiomyces ceres.

Hoping I find some subs myself before the season ends. Hashed was still posting a few recent finds in the NZ 2016 Actives thread. Gives me hope!

I'm not going to lie, I'm a special case. :lol:
I'm known for my patches that still produce fairly decently extremely late into the season, I have more patches than I can count, and a few of them are special cases.
It's been that way for my third consecutive season/year now, I should know by now.:facepalm:
I thought that because this years season kicked off so late and pumped so hard that it would just finish earlier than it usually would for me, I was wrong, live and learn!
Just when I thinks it's over, I get surprised with some more relatively decent flushes that I can not be fucked harvesting because my dehydrator fucked out and it has discouraged me.
:oldman:
I'm like "where the fuck did you come from" to my mushrooms!

In all seriousness, like xthrx says, it would be rare for you to encounter anything active at this time of the year, not impossible, but rare.
:goodluck:
Only a few of my 50+ patches still pump, what does that tell you? :lol:

I'm not keen to do proper harvests any more because my dehydrator gave in, and I cbf getting another one this late into the season, regardless of how well a few patches produce, the season is on the slope anyway so I don't think it is worth it, even for me.

I'll just let the majority of them rot in place I think, thus giving it even more potential for next year, perhaps still collecting a fresh trip here and there if I feel like a fresh trip... Always got to have my regular trips and it's the last call for 2016s fresh wild fruit, I know I'll be missing that, but it makes it all worth while for next year.

However, I'm definitely going to take some more pictures for the thread tomorrow, to show everyone how well my patches are producing this late into the season.

I'll just collect a few specimens for printing and swabbing, and to make some more myc, oh, and a fresh trip! :hehehe:
It's always good to go above and beyond mere hunting, I'm thinking of next year more than I'm thinking of this year, this year has been key to my self development and I'm pretty much over this year, it's been a challenge but an extremely important one at that!
2017 is going to be my year!
Learn from the past, apply for the future!

That's just me and my thoughts anyway, best of luck bro, you got this shit.
You just have to go hard as fuck if you want to have any hopes of finding anything, the odds are stacked heavily against you, but there is still hope.:dancer:
