Hey, newbie here, just stumbled onto this great site you guys have. If anyone could ID these I'd be very appreciative. They were found in middle GA growing on horse dung in a pasture. Hopefully these pictures will be enough for an ID...



Thanks

Panaeolus Antillarum, not active. Pan. Cyans grow in the same habitat, keep an eye on those fields. Both species are lookalikes but Cyans are normally thiner and bruise blue when damaged.

Ok, definently no bruising on these. Pretty sure they are Panaeolus antillarum. Thanks for the fast replies!

As Mr_Mushrooms indicated, we will need a spore print to have a real chance of identifying those. You should also check for things like bruising and odor while you're at it.

My guess is Stropharia coronilla. It might be also some agaricus specie such as Agaricus semotus, anyway....
Stropharia coronilla
Pileus Cap 2-5 cm broad, rounded, becoming convex, finally nearly plane; margin incurved when young, occasionally upturned in age; surface lubricous when moist, smooth, pale yellow-buff, margin lighter; flesh white, firm, thick at the disc, thin at the margin; odor faintly sweet; taste mild.
Lamellae Gills adnate when young, adnexed to slightly descending in age, close, broad, pale lilac-grey, darkening to greyish-purple at maturity.
Stipe Stipe 1.5-4.5 cm tall, 4-7 mm thick, solid, stuffed at maturity, sometimes hollow at the apex, equal to tapering downward; surface finely tomentose and white above the ring, smooth to finely fibrillose and pale yellowish-buff below; partial veil white, forming a medial to superior, persistent ring, the upper surface conspicuously striate and colored purple-brown by spores; rhizomorphs frequently at the base.
Spores Spore 7-8.5 x 4.5-5.5 ?m, elliptical, smooth, with an inconspicuous apical pore; spore print purple brown.
Habitat Solitary, scattered, to gregarious in grass; fruiting spring summer and fall in watered areas, less common during the winter months.
Edibility Possibly toxic.

From what I've been reading, the active mushrooms in my area, central GA, are Psilocybe cubensis & Panaeolus subbalteatus, correct? Are there any more I should be on the lookout for?
Elrond sends his regards!
Edit:
Just found this great post...
