ID Liberty Cap?
#27063096 - 11/29/20 02:15 PM (3 years, 2 months ago) |

Habitat: Found in a shady area in a playground among wood chips. Some were liberty cap shaped but others were much flatter, as seen in the picture.
Gills: Similar color to the cap, an off white, though they have darkened on the larger one since picking
Stem: thin, about 1.5 inches or 4 cm.
Cap: peaked with a nipple, top is lighter color that shades into a darker caramel color, then gets lighter around the edge of the mushroom
Bruising: stem becomes more brown; gills on the larger one has a little bit more dark internally where it's been broken in half.
Other information: Found today in the Pacific NW, USA

General appearance and darkening stem makes me lean towards galerina. MAYBE hypholoma

Psilocybe semilanceata is a grass dwelling mushroom never growing in or from wood or woodchips/shavings. A spore print may be helpful
Edit: familiarize yourself with these Psilocybe species: allenii, azurescens, baeocystis, cyanescens, ovoidiocystidiata, I feel like I'm forgetting something, but all I mentioned can be found in your area right now

Galerina Marginata seems like a better bet, then. Thanks everyone for the help!

I agree that it may be Galerina but a spore print is needed for conformation

What about the dark remnants of the cortina on the cap margin on the two right side mushrooms in the second pic? The spores look darker than Galerina I'm leaning towards Pholiota sp. or as MP said Hypholoma sp.

If your wanting to find liberty caps then look in fields where cows roam and poop.
Liberty caps feed off the nutrients in cow manure.

This is my guess as well based on the cap and stem coloring.
