I have given up completely on identifying Australian woodloving Psilocybes! After watching the documentary on magic mushrooms in Western Australia 'Fungamentary' where an elderly Mycogolist earnestly identifys a large brown-capped WAVY-CAPPED mushroom as Psilocybe Subaeruginosa - I am lost! Is this ID correct? Or is it that when someone finds a psilocybe of any description in Australia, it is labelled as Subaeruginosa?? According to Stamet's 'Psilocybe Mushrooms of the World' Ps.Subaeruginosa is a small brown mushroom that only expands to obtusely convex at full maturity. In this case, i havent found this mushroom!! Ive found three dark brown mushrooms and one orange capped psilocybe and all four uplifted and three out of four were wavy-capped on maturity - unlike Stamet's description! The orange capped mushroom was unique in that it had a small nipple, stained blue on the cap and had veil remnants on the margin that uplifts but does not go wavy on full maturity. The sceond mushroom was a small dark mushroom that has been tentatively ided as Ps.Cyanescens. The third mushroom is a dark wavy capped meaty mushroom shown below similar to the mushroom from 'Bunniyup'(incorrect spelling) western Australia - and the last is the closest ive found to Stamet's Subaeruginosa - in that it is umbonated and rarely uplifts and displays the dark cap colour. any ideas?? Mj??? --------------------
