Are these magical?
    #6473690 - 01/18/07 02:38 PM (17 years, 13 days ago)

Anyone know what kind of mushrooms these are? We picked them in the woods growing out of dead trees in the ground

I'm sensing a troll here. Next he's going to say that he already ate them.

But, to give you the benefit of the doubt hurley, those look like Galerina marginata which are extremely deadly, and not magical at all. If you eat them, you will probably need a liver transplant and/or a coffin, after suffering a pretty miserable illness.

It looks more like a harmless species of Laccaria to me. They are a common type of mushroom that are very slow to rot and persist in the environment for a very long time. This increases the odds that someone will randomly find them and the purple gills tend to raise false hopes of magical qualities.

Nice catch workman, the second picture's gills do look Laccaria-like, my bad on the ID. I jumped on galerina though partly because this is the time of year where people make posts like these just to get us all worked up!

Not the first time, and not the last.  But I'd rather call a Laccaria a Galerina than the other way around! :smile:

Those look pretty similar to the ones i have growing outside my house, in a big pile of chips i spread out in the spring.






I haven't really gotten to their ID yet but laccaria sounds like it might be a good place to start. Mine are definately not laccaria amethystina. I have seen plenty of those and they are not always purple. However fresh they have lovely looking purple-violet gills. Mine do not when young and fresh.



I am not saying that is not what he has. I would need to see some better pics and some young buttons. however i will say that i have never seen the lacarria amethystina with such and orange colored cap.


You do any spore prints?

If i remember correctly my pics had rusty-orange spore prints, while lacarrias are supposed to have white or white to lilac tinge.

I always perceived my pics to be some sort of galerina species as well. This is why i sort of am not that interested to put up a ID request before i get the time to do my own ID with my books.

I figure it is deadly or worthless.

Yar! It happens that I once walked outside my house/apartment building earlier this fall and came across several clumps of mushrooms that, in my memory at least, look strikingly similar to pictures of cyanescens posted here, with their caps all turned up in a wave pattern like those in the pics above. of course i dismissed them because i know nothing. now i regret not taking one for a spore print. ah well, next fall i suppose.

Yea, i found this one batch of mushrooms that looked almost identical to cyanescens(except the stem was brown) it had the purple-brown spore print, cinnamon colored gills, hollow stem, and wavy caps. But i was 110% sure they weren't cyanescens because i live in Tennessee!

They are not Laccaria.

Pscyanescens, those Cyan look-a-like mushrooms are Tubaria furfuracea.  I've mentioned them in a couple other posts as well, since my last visit to the Bay Area in Nov-Dec, when I kept finding them growing amongst Ps. cyanescens, and decided to figure out what they are. 

I'm not able to link to the search page referring to these Tubaria, so just do a search in mushroom hunting, search "Tubaria" there are about 13 threads which address these look-a-likes.  :smile:

Tubaria is a good idea. I was finding similar mushrooms that I thought were Laccarias until I did a spore print and it came out a yellowy-mustardy-brown which is consistent with Tubaria. I'm not sure that that is what the original poster has though.

Xmush - I only meant that the mushrooms Pscyan showed were Tubaria, I don't think the mushrooms at top by the original poster are the same.

Pscyan - What do you mean?? What picture?
