Purple oyster or something else?
    #26405541 - 12/29/19 12:05 AM (4 years, 1 month ago)

Habitat: Southern florida found two growing at the base of a tree. I left the one behind you see in one of the pictures.
It was pretty much all purple.
It had a skinny stem, maybe about 1/2 inch
Taking a spore print overnight. hopefully I can get some.
I took two small tissues samples on Maltextract agar plate in case I can identify that its edible.
I will go back tomorrow morning to pick up the second one I left to grow out more.

Probably Clitocybe Nuda (blewitt) or a Cortinarius.  If it is a blewitt, Sport print will be pink.  Corts are poisonous and spore print will be rusty brown. 

Next time you show a gill photo, don't have your hand blocking the view of the stem.  The way that the gills attach to a stem is sometimes an important identifier.

If you want to eat the blewitt, wait for a TI to confirm.  Although one little one will not amount to much of a meal.

The new ones look like corts to me.  Sorry I gave some bad information about the blewits, they do not bleed latex. The sure-fire way to sort is by making a spore print.

I'm making a new spore print with the new one I picked today because I can barely see the print on the aluminum foil. So I just placed the new cap on a sheet of paper to see the spore print in the evening or tomorrow.

that's cool, I'm glad I was able to help someone too! I only saw those two on my walk. I found some boletes and reishi looking ones too.
I'm excited if I can identify them as lepista nuda because its edible. I'd love to grow it out. The tissue sample on agar seems to have taken :smile:

Hey guys I'm putting an update on the lepista nuda I found and cloned to agar. Here's the photo. its nice you can see purple on it...maybe purple spores. some bacterial growth.

I'm about to take a sector and isolate away from bacteria.

I attempted to collect the spore print but unfortunately someone in my home did not know what that was and proceeded to throw it in the garbage.
I will collect the print once I grow out the tissue...I just finished making 7 transfers between 2 Petri dishes of that purple mushroom I found.
Before consuming it I will have to see the print and I have a good microscope to see the spores.
I will update in case anyone else found it interesting.
