I just wanted to post my opinions on variations in liberty cap appearance. I strongly believe that the definition that states that the caps of P. Semilanceata do no expand should be altered. In the same field I found many shroom I believe to be P. Semilanceata and some of them have no conical shape whatsoever. Similarities: -a removable pelicule -nipple on top -cap changed colour to a shade of tan as they dried Difference: -some were darker than others -some were FLATTER than others -some had a thicker stem to cap ratio ----
 -The pasture
Here are the flat ones, appear to grow where the grass in less dense
You can't tell me these arn't libbies
-the lot of them
IF they were all growing on the same substrate and shared many of the same characteristics, should I really hesitate to preserve and eat them because of small variartions? Any thoughts??

I am pretty sure the flat ones are Psilocybe strictipes. You can tell them from P. semilanceata because they lack a papilla and have a cap that expands further.

I wrote that wikipedia article a few hours ago and I need some pictures for it. Could you borrow a camera and get a few nice images?

They all have nipples of some shape or other! I only touch the slippery nipple mushies.
