New species and lots of them!!!!! Part 1 (PICS)

Well for the past 3 or so weeks this mushrooms has been fruitng quite abundantly! So far I've found somehwere between 1000-2000 mushrooms this season of this species, its been incredible! They are so much fun to pick, they fruit on a flood plain back in some old woods that makes for great scenery as well as security, I never see another person out there while I'm picking. I can find them for about a mile or two down this flood plain, weilii will also show up out there from time to time. Picking them is similar to what I think of semilanceta picking to be, searching through tall clumps of sedge grass for small petite caps, its loads of fun
Here are some pics...

Tell us some more about these little guys? Print color, smell, do they bruise and how fast?
Is it just me or do they resemble weilii a bit?
Really a beautiful shroom, LK... you're my hero.
(p.s. How potent are they? as opposed to Weilii of course :P)

Smell is simialr to weilii but still different, weilii just has that extra weird punch to it that sets it apart. And of course they look somewhat simialr to weilii, they are Psilocybes, weilii also looks like azures, cyans, baeos, caerulescens and many more, but this species is definitely 100% not weilii! Its much smaller for one, and has many other differences as well. Its hard to tell but most the mushrooms are only an inch or two tall and the stems only a few millemeters thick. This species is also much more striate in the cap than weilii and has a seperable pellicle.
Prints is purple, they bruise blue about as fast as weilii, and they are similar in potency but different in overall trip qualities.
Check part two of my post for more pics to compare to....

These look almost like a varient of p. stunzii [and sound to be of similar potency; and with a similar bluing reaction], although without much of an annulus that I can see from your pics [also the habitat seems different--stunzii USUALLY are found among wood chips I believe]. Little Brown Mushroom identification can get pretty creative. What are you going to call them if they are indeed a new species?
Nice find. You must have picked half the mushrooms worth picking in your county by now.

I'm thinking of naming them after Mckenna, or atleast I'd like to. What do you all think about that?

You should call those Shrooms "Storm Keepers" lol -The Keepers of the Storm.
The Lizard King sure has conjeurd up a swirling storm of Psilocybe mushroom-finds in his great land of Georgia, and Georgians Shroomers are again sitting on the gold mine!
Keep on shroomin dude!~, GGreatOne234

Yes teonan, same species, glad you like the name idea.
I doubt anyone has seen these in they're yard, they haven't ever shown up in grass lawns yet, and I search plenty of them picking weilii and have yet to come across it. It grows in sandy redish soil along a flood plain that gets disturbed yearly. quite different habitat that a lawn.

Dude, do you really honestly think these are weilii, I'm not a dumbass you know, have more faith in me than that, I'm not trying to oull one over on anybody, I have picked 10s of thousands of Ps. weilii and few thousand of this new species and I can gurantee you 100% these are not weilii!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can see my new species side by side with weilii, now come on, these are not the same mushroom!!!!!
