strange looking uk cyanescens? Or something else?
    #23839169 - 11/16/16 03:25 PM (7 years, 2 months ago)

found some of these in a patch, in uk, and they all have this dome shape with a prominent nipple. None of the other psilocybe cyans i've found look like this. they have purple brown print, blueing on the stem. Found growing in woodchips.
Are these cyans or something else?

Thanks

i should add, the ones from that particular patch always retain that shape, they don't flatten out. certainly never turn up wavy.

:notsureif:
It's posts like these that make me really question if P. allenii, P. cyansecens, P. azurescens and P. subaeruginosa are actually just different phenotypes of the same thing.

No, they are not, the DNA has been sequenced.
That is not Psilocybe cyanescens, or P. allenii . I need to see more specimens to give an accurate ID, preferably in various stages of development and in situ, close-UPS of various parts of the mushrooms,etc... BUT DEFINITELY MORE SPECIMENS.
Maybe Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata.

Yeah I know that, but all those species I listed in Section Cyanescens look remarkably marcoscopically similar.
Not necessarily identical, but very similar indeed. As though they are all just phenotypes of the same species.
You reckon they are ovoids? in UK?? :confused:

These don't look like P. cyanescens. They look closer to P. serbica.

Please keep some for further study. Very cool find! :thumbup:

Where roughly in the UK are you?

They aren't cyanescens but are definitely Psilocybes. I've never seen ones like that coming from the UK, is there a chance someone made that patch?

So, reasonably close to the Channel and ferry ports. Maybe something escaped from the European continent?

Well, there is always a chance of course, but it doesn't look like a normally cultivated species.

I say this should be dried and mailed to the experts for a proper identification.
I guess it also could help if ThePump returns to the spot for in situ shots and
if possible a superficial analysis of the substrate - i.e. does it grow directly from
the wood chips, or rather from the soil underneath. If there is visible mycelium, also
consider bringing a portion home to try some further cultivation.

I like this thread. :mushroom2:

They sorts look like Psilocybe subaeruginosa or Psilocybe serbica like Anglerfish mentioned, I would dry and save at least one of them so someone with a microscope can try and figure out what they are.
Are there anymore left growing? If so try and get some in situ pictures.

What does a normally cultivated species look like? If we don't know what this is how would we know what it should look like cultivated vs indigenous?

Could the type of mulch the mushrooms are growing on effect the look of them ive had a few odd looking cyanescens in my time but they only come up in spacific spots thinking maybe it has something to do with the nutriants the mushrooms are absorbing in that erea ???

Well, perhaps I should say it doesn't look like one of the normally cultivated species - which in my book
are, apart from the dung loving subtropical species, mainly Psilocybe cyanescens - and perhaps, to a
lesser degree, P. azurescens and P. ovoideocystidiata.

Then again, there might be someone in OP's area cultivating "odd" wood loving species. I say it's possible, but not very likely.

The substrate they are growing on can have odd phenotypical effects yes but not to the degree they would look like something else entirely different.

That makes more sense, I misunderstood what you were saying.
