Azures and....and... Well, I have no idea!
    #7535217 - 10/19/07 12:29 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

Since the last two days have been quiet rainy, I decided to go out hunting again :smile:

I actually tried to find a Cyan patch I discovered a month ago (I didn't find it again :crazy:.

Anyway, to my surprise I found a couple of Ps. Azurescens. Not many but I'm happy none the less :smile:

Here are the pics:
















Anyway, the more interesting thing came up an hour later when I searched in another area.
I noticed some mushrooms that I first thought were Cyans but when I took a closer look it appeared to be something I've never seen before...

Habitat: earth covered wood chips

Cap: caramel coloured / hygrophan (is that the English word for it? What I mean is it changes the colour, when it gets dry).
Not exactly nippled but not wavy as well...

Gills: light orange to dark yellow (brighter than Cyans)

Stem: White & fleshy

Smell: None to a little nut like

Bruising: Blue as hell!

The remarkable thing about it is the way they turn, when they naturally dry. They look like little trumpets (not like any other mushroom I know)

What I think I can say, is that they are active (due to their look an the strong bluing).

They seem to be somethin' in between Azures and Cyans...

Here are the pics:
















And this is how they look when they are old and mummified:








Does ANYONE have ANY idea of what this is?

Workman?? You wanna have a sample and check out the spores and stuff? :wink:

Hmmm, those do look a little odd but its probably just a variant of Psilocybe cyanescens or P. azurescens with a cap that matures in a nontypical manner. But I have been wrong before, horribly, horribly wrong.

I'd be more than happy to look at a specimen and post a microscopy.

Blinks. So those top ones are Azurs huh? I must be retarded. What area is this? I have passed up many of mushrooms that look exactly like the top set of images.

I'm thinking new species. I hope you get some to Workman. Cool finds.

Hmmm.... They appear to be sporeless. Could you attempt a spore print??

Strange gill attachment, and pileus.... but could be some strange, mutated variant of cyan or azure as Workman suggested.

Damn! I just took a look at the prints and CureCat is indeed correct: They haven't dropped a single spore! Pretty weird! But neither did the "Azures" and therefore I believe it's the same kind of mushrooms :crazy:

Sometimes the sterile mushrooms are a result of environment, often occurring near the end of the fruiting season, with the stragglers having no spores.

However, since it does not appear to be the end of your season (ha!), and all of the fruiting bodies in this patch appear sterile, I'm willing to bet it is a genetic mutation.

@cube talk

There are quiet a few mushrooms that look pretty much like them.
If you live in an area where Cubes grow (your name might have somethin' to do with it) I bet they are not Azures, for they need quiet cold temperatures and don't grow in the southern states or anywhere as worm as in areas Cubes and Copes grow in...

@CureCat

That's what I thought as well... It almost seems that they couldn't decide whether they are Cyans or Azures... Maybe we have the missing link here :wink:
