ID Request - Psylocibe Semilanceata? [UK North West] * 1
    #25557833 -

Habitat: Found growing in a large grassy field/park where cows graze in the North West of England today. They were found around an area near a tree with lots of dead grass roots surrounding it. Cow manure was in the area but these did not appear to be growing out of it.

Gills:
I am not very adept at describing the gills however they appear to be a dark brown, extremely slightly purple colour in the more mature ones, and slightly lighter in the younger ones.

Stem: The stems appear to be between 3-5 inches, not hollow, white and slightly unstraight. Rather thing and silky? texture.

Cap:
I am really bad when it comes to terminology in this area! So I shall resort to the photo! (Sorry!)

Spore print color: Black with extremely slight purple/blue shades
Link: https://imgur.com/gallery/t3QolkZ

Bruising:
No visible bruises on these mushrooms thus far.

Other information:
The mushrooms do not have much of a scent however if any I would say it is an earthy/rubbery smell.









Thankyou for any advice or help you guys can provide. This is my first post here. So excited to join the community!

They look like Psathyrealla to me.

Yes, Psathyrella or more likely Parasola conopilea.

Thankyou very much for your help! I have only recently found out how fun and interesting learning about all the mushrooms in my area is! Am eager to find out more!

These are the only mushrooms I have found that do look quite similar to libs. I think since I have not found any thus far, my brain may have been warping my bias a little more towards these being them.

I had looked at so many different pictures of libs, in such varying states, that I think I was trying to believe these were a mutant or something along those lines!

Thankyou agai for your help!

Quite a few mushrooms may look similar to liberty caps - until you've actually found them and held them in your hand.

Looking at pictures is helpful, but it is also crucial to read the description and learn the specific characters.

Keep looking for them, you're bound to be successful if you narrow down the search parameters.
Be sure to bring a camera with you on the hunt, take in situ shots of all mushrooms you want help
to identify and post them here.

Welcome to the Shroomery. :toast:
