Psilocybe alutacea Identification Help - NSW * 1
    #26742908 - 06/13/20 10:46 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

Hola Shroomery fam,

Been a long time since I've visited these ways but hopefully y'all can help out.

I went for a long walk in some pine forest yesterday and came across these on my search for the usual suspects. I found quite a few of these mushrooms which grew directly from wombat dung and appeared to show weak blue bruising. I ended up discarding them at the end of the day but regret my decision after learning about p. alutacea. All I took were these two shots



Info:

Found solitary or in groups of 2-3 growing directly from wombat dung in a planted pine forest. Up to about 10cm long. Smaller individuals were darker brown coloured with caps lightening up to quite pale (think liberty caps) on the mature specimens. Biggest cap about 15-20mm across but majority were smaller at about 10mm. Spore print not taken but gills appear to show dark purple/black spores and more mature specimens definitely dark purple/black. Definite blue bruising on some specimens (pictured) but weaker on others, tend to bruise around middle of stype to base and less so near the cap. Very distinctive nipple on cap present in all specimens, which was very 'pointy'. I suspected it could be deconica though they seem to lack the nip. This is smack bang in the middle of winter so temps have been going from maybe 6-8C at night up to 18C during the day in the location these were found and they seem ubiquitous, growing basically wherever there is wombat poo.

I plan to go back and take some proper shots of these and take some samples of the better bruisers to print and further ID.

Think I've got p. alutacea here?

Exciting to learn there's so much more out there :psychsplit:

Neato. Yep, I can't find anything else they could be.

I hope to go back in the next two weeks to get some shots and hopefully collect a bunch of these and also attempt some microscopy.
