ID Request: Mycena subcaerulea? (Not active) (Auckland, NZ)
    #26782508 - 06/25/20 04:27 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

Small mushrooms found in a shallow ditch filled with a mix of bark chips (not wood chips) and soil.

Translucent grey to tan colour cap, with a distinctive cyan blue tint towards cap margin. Max diameter of cap about 10mm. Nearly all convex, (one mature mushroom convex but flares outwards at margin).

Gills are a tan grey. Attached to stem (adnate?). No spore print. Spore print not visible on white paper after 2 days trying to get a print.

Stem length max about 80mm long, 1mm wide. Pale tan with cyan blue tint towards bottom. No veil, no ring/skirt. No apparent bruising colour. Stems seem hollow (hard to tell).



The tiny pale speckles are sawdust dust.



The cyan I mention is more vivid then the photos appear on my screen.





After a day on paper the cyan blue darkened a little (no photo sorry).

Thanks for checking this probably obscure ID request out!

Edit to change subject header (x2).

Thanks for the identification replies.

The wikipedia entry on the genus "Mycena" says one species (Mycena cyanorrhiza) may be active and another species is toxic. A recent Shroomery post says there are no active Mycena. Can anyone clarify this please?


I'll check if there are pruinose (white dust?) on the stem when I'm able to visit the location again

Mycena are not active, those look like m. amicta to me

Mycena cyanorrhiza is not active, the wikipedia page is inaccurate. It was originally assumed to be active because of the bluing reaction, but chemical evidence has since proven otherwise

Thanks for all the replies!

(I think there is a fine, white, sparkly dust on the stem, i.e. pruinose. Sorry no photo.)

Please see my related outdoor P. subaeruginosa grow question on whether they will compete with Mycena if of interest.
