Uhh.. We need a better description... How about including: Gill color Spore print color If they briuse blue. The thing you refered to as a "head" is better known as a cap.

Sounds like you'll want to do a lot of research before eating ANYTHING you find outside. You'd be better off growing or buying them from someone, it's the easy way to do it =\
The mushroom you discribed sounds like Ps. antillarium, but it's hard to be sure without a picture. Ps. antillarium is not active, in other words, you won't trip if you eat it... but you may get a bad case of the liqud shits. Doesn't sound like fun? Don't eat it. In fact, never ever ever eat anything you don't have a 100% true ID on.
Peace out, -Gumby
