Mushroom ID Request - Scotland
    #25595371 -

Hey, I would really appreciate it if someone could help me identify these mushrooms. I've had a look on various websites such as mycokey.com and haven't had any luck identifying them by myself. If anyone could help me out that would be great!

I found them on the East Coast of Scotland yesterday evening. If anyone has any ideas as to whether or not they are psychedelic please let me know. The reason I picked them was because I saw the nipple on top and associated that with liberty caps, however, upon further inspection and after some research back home I doubt that they are. Although, I am hoping that there is still a chance that they could be psychedelic even if they are not liberty caps. I found LOADS of them so if they're psychedelic then I'll be able to get several trips from them!

Can anyone help me out?



Habitat:
In the grass beside both a big tree stump and a little stream (although the ground that the mushrooms were found on was elevated about 1m above the stream - there was a drop down to the water).









Gills:
Colour - dark brown
Not attached






Stem:
Length - 4cm to 9cm
Diameter - 3mm to 7mm
Colour - white/light creamy 
Solid as opposed to hollow

Cap:
Diameter - 2cm to 4cm
Colour - light cream colour with orangey-brown nipple
Texture - slimy/wet (could be wet from rain)
Shape - conical for most but for older/larger looking mushrooms they appeared to be slightly wavy












Spore print colour:
Very dark brown/black - the spore prints didn't go very well but I'll send the pics anyway.








Bruising:
I didn't notice any distinct bruising

Other information:
The mushrooms were all in large clusters around the tree stump, I am pretty sure they are all the exact same type. The grass that they were found on was very sloped down towards the stream (not directly in to the stream, but forming a little cliff by the stream). The grass is also situated under some much larger trees on the other side of the stream, not obscured from the sunlight though. There are ducks living nearby if that helps. I picked about a kilo of these - don't worry, I didn't pull them out at the root (broke the stem leaving the rest in the ground). They appear to be a bit darker in the picture of them in their habitat but they looked a bit lighter when they were a little bit more dry.


Thanks!

Compare to Coprinellus micaceus.
