Cyan lookalike
    #7570315 - 10/28/07 05:01 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

Hi all!!!  Been browsing these forums for a year or so now but never really had the need to post anything until now.  I live in the UK and normally go hunting for libs, but always keeping an eye out for things as you never know what you might find!  Anyway, was just getting back into my car today after some shopping at the supermarket and glanced down at the wood chip verge noticing what at first glance I thought were cyans and got a brief moment of excitingment as never come across them before, but after a bit of a closer inspection noticed that they didn't seem quite right, the gills seemed a bit too brown and there was no blue bruising.  I was just wondering if anyone knoew what they actually were, and if there are many cyan lookalikes?

Location - wood chips on the edge of a supermarket carpark.
Gills - brown
Stem - white, appears to bruise brown.
Spore print - on its way











And my lib haul from last weekend, not the best but just to show I'm not a complete amature :wink:



Does anyone know how many frosts it takes until they all start dying?  Because we had one last week but apart from that its not been too bad,  if there all gonna be dead then I'm not going to waste my time to go missioning to find some more!
Thanks!:tongue2:

That does not look remotely close to it to me.

Hm everything seems normal about it being a cyan except for the coloring on the cap, which is normally yellow in the middle and brown on the outside edges. Other then that I would say there cyans.

Just an opinion though

cactu has it. Cortinarius is not a genus to bother eating. It includes a few species that are deadly poisonous, and no good edibles. No active species that I'm aware of.

The problem is in knowing what a lookalike is. What is a lookalike to me might not be one to you, and vice versa. There are actually *lots* of reports of poisonings where people mistook Chlorophyllum molybdites for Psilocybe cubensis, two species that I don't think resemble each other at all (other than having caps and stems).

Happy mushrooming!

Thanks for posting the pics and for the ID cactu. The other night i spotted a wavy looking cap from quite a distance in some woodchips. Picked a couple kilos of them. Got home, and was quite disappointed to see that they were exactly what OP posted.
I will not quit searching for cyans this season. I am determined to find them. They've given a whole new meaning to dreaded ugly carparks with landscaping.
I've come to notice that wood chips are used more widely in America than the UK. Just an observation..

In the meantime..Libs are indeed popping up like crazy! North in LANCASHIRE(thanks uarewotueat. Obvious I'm not native English?)

Also, plentiful in the right type of grass and soil in the south. Not sure exactly what that type it is, but I'm slowly figuring it out.
