ID request, bluing WA woodlover
    #9350943 -

I found these yesterday and thought they looked very interesting.  Im still trying ID them myself, but havent arrived at anything conclusive yet...perhaps P. cyanofibrillosa?  Thanks!



Habitat:  wood chips

Gills: light brown, lighter than cap. adnexed to adnate.

Stem: 1-5mm wide, 3-8cm long. overall white appearance (brownish-tan below white fibrils, especially towards base).  Wider at bottom, equal at top.

Cap: 1-4cm. obtusely conic, plane in very mature specimen. Hygrophanous.  Carmel, drying to tan.  Viscid with seperatable pellicle.

Spore print:  slightly purplish brown with naked eye, more pronounced in flash photo of print.  Very similar to P. cyanescens print.

Bruising: blue, on stem and cap.

Location: Washington state, lower Puget Sound region.

edit: they were quite dry when I found them...hence the light color caps in the pictures.

Interesting!

Maybe you found something new. 

Azures is a good guess but I don't really see the nipple on these, also the stem looks different, more fibrillose.

Yeah, those look pretty crazy. That would be neat if they were something new. You should plant that myc in more wood chips, also scrape those spores off that paper into a spray bottle and spray it around. That's what I do to try and spread the species.

Thanks for the replies everyone...

I'll try and get some pics of them in their habitat tomorrow.

P. azurescens never crossed my mind...to far north isn't it? And the caps don't plane out like in the last pic above?

I really see the similarity with the caerulescens stem.

I kinda keep back to cyanofibrillosa.  Cyanofibrillosa aren't cespitose fruiters though...The other thing I thought was that the dry weather could have stunted them before the caps could plane out.

You have something odd, that's certain.  Not fibs, not azures.  Collect as many as you can, take as many prints as you can and take as many photos as you can!

Fibs don't bruise blue like that.  They're barely active.

I've also been told that azurescens can be different depending on if they're found on sandy areas or wood.

Ps. azurescens grows in Washington.

These don't look exactly like anything I've seen.

It doesn't look enough like Ps. cyanofibrillosa, Ps. azurescens, Ps. cyanescens, nor "Cyanofriscosa".

I certainly see the resemblance to Ps. caerulescens or Ps. weilii with the pleated, incurved cap margin, and the somewhat floccose stipe, as seen in the former. 
But again, it doesn't look enough like either.

Probably something new.

I sent him a pm already to solicit a print and inform him that he should send specimens to the good microscopy enthusiasts in this forum.

That should nail it.

Nice mushrooms Ganymede:)
They remind me of Psilocybe zapotecorum, what type of trees were growing with these?

Heres a few more pics.  I'll try and get some in their habitat tomorrow.

Inski: not sure...I can find out tomorrow.
Curecat:  Going to do that.

I'm trying not to get too excited just yet...but WOW!  If this is something new...again, lets not get ahead of ourselves...it would a truly amazing thing.

Actually, the new images resemble Ps. baeocystis more than they do Ps. zapotecorum!
Very interesting find either way!

I was just going to say exactly that.

That's funny.... I wonder why I didn't think of that sooner!

Psilocybe baeocystis

:grin: It would be great to see one of Workmans microscopy composites of these specimens!
As cactu said, this is a rare find and I think everything should be done to preserve this beautiful species:cool:
