The cap color is all wrong for ovoids imo. I think they might just weather beaten azurescens. The "annulus" might just be the stem growing weird from something falling on it, getting stepped on, etc. Knowing what they smelled like would help a lot. They could be ovoids though, the caps are weirdly shaped. Azurescens tend to be pretty evenly rounded.



:whathesaid:

Looking at it closer the stems look more like azzie stems to me! Also were the stems hollow?



Yeah, honestly the more I look at them the more they look like P. azurescens. I just could swear one of the pictures (the first one under the heading, “harvested 4 days after finding”) shows clearly  a membranous annulus, which is never a trait of P. azurescens.

The stems were hollow (sorry left that off the description). Close to the center of this photo, you can see the stem where it was removed from the cap. Tis meaty but hollow.

I could've been more specific on the smell, apologies! "Like mushrooms" was a little broad. They honestly reminded me of what azzies smell like, kind of earthy and like weirdly metalic? Smells are hard, I suck at describing what my nose deciphers in the absence of a hard likening like "smells like strawberries". Excuse the vagueness but yeah kinda smelled like mushrooms. Not that different from how I remember azures.

Also, I found some azurescens less than 20 yards from this location a couple of weeks prior to finding these.
But... they looked like this!

If you look at the first photo you can see that they were growing very low to the ground. I left em' for a few days before even trying to look at the stem because when I tried to lean the cap over to look it didn't budge. Just solid, short, low meaty dudes. Needed to let em' grow so I could even pick them without mangling the caps. And I didn't get a look at the stem until I harvested them so I couldn't tell you if any annulus was present early on.

I should've taken more photos, but yeah I wasn't convinced it was an annulus when I was processing them. After looking up close once I removed the cap I had chalked it up to odd grow/weird conditions. Similar to how I saw some odd growth on some cubes when I did pf cakes. Some just came out funky. But I'm no expert which is why I'm here. Thanks for everyone's input so far. :rockon:

Ovoids tend to smell more like cubensis than other woodlovers do ime. Stinky buggers.
