Psychoactive SoCal?
    #7571563 - 10/29/07 12:14 AM (16 years, 3 months ago)

Species #1 (i think we're looking at one species here, but could be wrong)

in the wild:




took a specimen home for pictures + spore print:

[/image]
SPORE PRINT!

these guys were found in a pretty sheltered little habitat...it's almost a microcosm...shady, moist and w/ plentiful wood-chips. this is all inside a "gated community" with irrigation and lots of gardening going on.


some baby pins!

">
Habitat: Woodchips on the top of a small grassy knoll, sheltered by hedges + trees. Some kind of coprinus [probably coprinus micaceus] seen there not long ago.

Gills: Tan/Yellowish, Attached (adnexed/notched]

Stem: Whitish with bruising. Lined vertically.

Cap: Varying from reddish-brown to light tan, as pictured.

Spore Print Color: Looks fairly purple-brown to me, to be honest. But then again, am i seeing what i want to? The picture of the print is okay, but it's very hard to get a camera to show "true color", if you know what i mean.

Bruising: From stem to gills, bruising is evident. Definitely looks blue/green to me.

Location: SoCal!

Sorry about the number of pictures...I tried to narrow them down to the most helpful. Anyway, these shrooms have been bugging me for a while. I can ONLY find them in this one spot that can't be more than five square feet or so, very random considering what I usually find around these parts. Your help is greatly appreciated!

i have no idea how these mushrooms occured where they are...

azurescens seems like a pretty good fit, but as you can tell, i'm a first-season kind of n00b ~ love mah shrooms though!

anyone else agree or disagree with the azurescens call?

Looks like azurescens. I wonder if the patch is wild or if someone planted it.

:shocked:
What city/town in SoCal???

Definitely Psilocybe, maybe Ps. azurescens, though they resemble the Ps. cyanescens I've found, as well:


Faceofbear, do any of the specimens have wavy cap margins like this?

Where's the blue bruising?

I can't see how azurescens could possibly be fruiting in your temperature range?

Inactive Hyphaloma, Stropharia or Psilocybe?

The stipes, lamelle, and cap margin.... I would point it out in paint, but it seems rather evident.

could it be a cultivated patch?
from the overall habitat shot, it seems as if that area was cleared earlier in the year for "some reason"

Thanks, the lamelle bruising looked a bit dark to me for typical green cap bruising and the stipe bases are harder to spot.

No need to get prickly, just asking a question.
