Liberty Cap ID Request
    #23655888 - 09/18/16 02:30 PM (7 years, 4 months ago)

Habitat:
Moist, grassy gorge in southern Iceland. Most were standing alone.

Gills:
Darkish gills/spores. I'm not sure what attached or not means.

Stem:
2-4 inches length, couple millimeters diameter, dark color, texture is kind of stringy/strawy, appears hollow, thin

Cap:
0.5-1 inch diameter, dark brown color, texture is wet/slimy, conical/spherical: I would say conical, convex/concave: I would say convex on top. They appear to mostly have nipples.

Spore print color:
I haven't had a chance to do this.

Bruising:
If I press the gills against a white piece of paper, the paper becomes darkish. There's maybe a hint of bluish/purplish. (I'm not sure if this is what bruising means).

Here are pictures of the first set. These were all found in the same 30 foot radius.

Here are some more that were picked in the same general area but away from the first set and in a dryer area. Some of these were picked by someone else. Some have whitish caps.

We definitely don't want to eat the wrong kind. Thanks a ton.

Panaeolus acuminatus seems likely. The pronounced striations on some members of the collection seem interesting.

Interesting. I forgot to add that the grassy gorge was covered in sheep dung. But I didn't see any of these growing directly in dung.

LibertyKing, is that a lib cap in your avatar? I ask because I saw one just like that, but it had a brown cap and a white stem with similar thickness. The curvature matched the one in your photo. I didn't pick it or photograph it though.

Panaeolus acuminatus doesn't necessarily grow in dung. It can be found growing from grass.
