Need ID help - possible Psilocybe Semilanceatas?
    #9329149 -

Hey everyone. This is my first post and going to be my first time shrooming (hopefully.) I am not very experienced, and have looked several times at various locations to no avail, until now. I suspect they are Psilocybe Semilanceatas (Liberty Caps), but i need a second opinion. I have no pictures at this time, but they look very similar to this mushroom, except the cap is a bit more spread out, and they are a touch darker.:



It rained two days ago for the first time in a week(?)


Habitat: Soil - Found in wet soil covered in thick grass and leaves.

Gills: The gill color varies from a light light brown to a light gray. The gills are spread a good amount apart.

Stem: Dark brown to light black, fragile, and very thin.

Cap: Light brown to drak gray, smooth, slimy when wet, small and fragile.

Spore print color: STILL WORKING ON IT. WILL UPDATE.

Bruising: No color change was observed.

Location: Picked in Northwest USA. (Sacramento, California.)

Thanks for the help in advance! PEACE

The two differences you described are often seen in these mushrooms...As well as many others.

I suspect you have them it's the right time. When you get the print I will tell you for sure, but someone else may come along and verify first...

The lack of bruising has me concerned.

it's not a good idea to include a picture that isn't yours. It can lead to mistakes :nonono:

better to say: "it looked like pictures of them I'd seen before"

the location in sacramento has me concerned.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it.
If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

Sacramento is not in the Northwest USA.:crankey:

what you found is most likely not a Psilocybe Semilanceata.

i would suspect that it is either an inactive Psilocybe species or Stropharia semiglobata.

i found out what it was after a spore print and further investigation: A Mycena genus, most likely Galericulata.

Ya you said "Stem: Dark brown to light black, fragile, and very thin".The colour of the stem doesn't really vary in them.I'm sure there are other types in your area?
