I cant decide whats more beautiful, the blueing in those copes or the view from that mountain. Keep em comin!
--------------------
It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns. Also he got a race car. Is any of this getting through to you?

> No idea. I can't tell if it's sponge or just really crinkled up gills. If they are gills, then I'm thinking galerina. Otherwise, no idea.
Yea, Galerina for sure.
The only other thing it could be is Gymnopilus.
> Not sure, maybe pholiota:
I think so.

The toad is Bufo marinus, a toxic toad that was released in Hawaii in 1932 in a horrifyingly misguided attempt to control sugar cane beetles.
The venom glands do secrete poison, but it lacks the psychoactive 5-meo-dmt found in B. alvarius venom.

Thanks for being nice enough to go through all of the work to share your finds in the islands. You are on vacation but you did not forget about us myco junkies.

yeah, couldn't forget about you guys!!! That is very interesting about that toad. I had a feeling it was either entheogenic or poisonous.
I went back to the pasture this morning, and walked around with the camera. It's crazy, I walked almost straight into seven fat copes yesterday, and searched a good half of the field this morning, finding only 3 more. This field is massive too. I think those copes did want to be rescued!!! I did find what I believe to be a different species of copelandia though, maybe cambodgeniensis. It had a more red stem, with whitish fibrils. The margin was more incurved too. I found this first snapped some shots thinking it was cyanescens. I then looked harder at it, and became skeptical. But I threw it in my pack anyways. When I looked at it 20 mins later it was BLUE!!! Then I found a for sure cyanescens, with a bunch of old huge ones that were completely rotten and black/blue. To be continued. Going hiking now!!!

Cactu, my first thought strangely was that the toad was entheogenic. I don't know why. I just felt it. Damn, I should have licked it, hehe.
Ahhhhh, it is pouring rain out rain now. A beautiful sound and smell. How long do copelandias take to mature? I'm thinking 3-4 days. Hopefully my little friends will return soon. but I'm gonna go searching in new places. There's more pastures up the valley from where I was that look enchanted. It rains every day so I'm hopeful. Wonderfulness!!!

hello well i have done with this pictures yet questions to be answer wtf are those green mushy in this picture are you playing mind games with me .the big mushrooms appear one of the species of melanoleuca sp.what is the small green friend?

the next mushrooms i do´n´t think is either gym or galerina look at those gill even are some how deterioreting.maybe a gym will se if i can find more.
. the next one i agree with pholiota .
then those wood are fron mangle
then this cluster of collybya look real cool and mossy to be in a tropical enviroment

then that amanita i wonder , you know amanita are really rare only appear in well conserve tropical enviroment,
 the next picture of the tree is a casuarina or salix sp.
beutifull view you can see the hot spot there  last picture is a acacia sp. or leguminosae. all my best vibration .

Day 3-Got back to the pasture this morning, walked maybe half of it. Still amazed that I walked directly into a fat paddy of copes yesterday, and found only 3 today after searching half the field!!! Somehow, I was called by those beauties yesterday. Such a beautiful place. A few posts up I talked about how I believe I picked cyanescens today, along with a different copelandia species. Tropicalis or combodginiensis. The specimans got a little beat up on my way back, but I got some decent field shots today!!! After a session of copeing this morning we went for an incredible hike. Found some rad shrooms, and some awesome scenery. Here's the pics.
Sunrise this mornin:
 Early morning coprinus growing from palm frond duff:
 Cool crab found on the beach this mornin:
 This poop is loaded with life:
 unknown copelandia species growing from horse dung:
 Unknown cope on left, two inactive panaeolus on right:
 Copelandia cyanescens:
 Inactive panaeolus, maybe antillarum?:
 Blueing cyanescens cap:
 Beat up copes, unknown on top:
 Copelandia cyanescens stem porn:

Hike pics Density at trailhead:
 Cool fungus with pores, maybe trametes, probably not:
 This thing was amazing:



 These were cool, very bright:


 Funky trees:
 Galerina:

 This is looking up toward wettest place on earth:
 Not sure:
 Laccaria:
 Cool trees:
 Nice lichen:
 Pretty huh?:
 Life and death:
 This tree was covered in saprophytic plants:

 Peace!!! More tomorrow.
