unidentified psilocybes, possibly anomylous P. silvatica/pelliculosa
    #5706221 - 06/03/06 12:23 AM (17 years, 7 months ago)

ok, so i never got a clear answer about this last year. last autumn on washington state's olympic peninsulai made a trailside collection of some somewhat odd psilocybes.

description:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cap - .5-1.5 cm. diameter, hemisphereic to broadly convex. golden tan, fading to light straw in drying, viscid from a pellicle wich is easily seperable from the cap. flesh thin.

stipe - verry thin, 2-8 cm. in length, somewhat lighter than the pileus, darkening verry slightly to light brown towards the base. stipe even, hollow or stuffed (i'm not sure I correctly remember which), slightly enlarged towards the base, occasionaly with clear blueing [e.g. i.e. about 10% of mature specimens, noticable within 20 min of handling], and especialy prominent where aborted pins are attatched to stipe base.

gills - close, narrow, in 2-3 intermediate tiers, more or less concolorous with the cap, and sporulating unevenly, late into maturity.

spore deposit - distinct purple-brown.

habbitat, habbit - growing in gregarious to caespitose groups on soil at the edge of a trail. some conifer (doug fir) litter on ground and under young salal bushes. also found a few yards away growing in and about a sedge tussock.
found early nov. 2005 on the olympic peninsula in washington state, US.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the strange thing is that these specimens have an unmistakable odor of anise. i have looked and have not been able to find any mention of a psilocybe with any kind of an anise like odor.

does anybody here have a clue what else i might be dealing with?

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it.
If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.
