Unknown small brown mushrooms of the Psilocybe genus fruiting in NSW.
Zen Peddler replied to heyowana's topic in Mycology
I know that alutacea actually fruits off rye grass seed as well. -

The micrographs are consistent with alutacea. Time will tell. -

Found the micrographs - cystidia look lageniform -
If the substrate is white when broken up it would be safe to say its colonised. How much nutrients the mycelium is extracting from the substrate is probably impossible to measure other than by health of colonised mycelium/speed of colonisation. i find that king stropharia sometimes on things like compost or coir tends to throw rhizos through but it never all goes white weirdly. I get the feeling this is because its searching for more preferred substrates/mediums. I guess unless the species in question it mycorrhizal if the substrate contains some nutrients then it will probably colonise it

Yeah get Ferret to scope them asap. -

if he's cystidial form descriptions are correct (and id only trust inski to get those right imo) then its unlikely to be subaeruginosa. It has none if its macroscopic features so the fact that its lignious means very little. -

Actually Im going to go with a regional phenotype of Psilocybe alutacea going on the photos on the shroomery which have that more reddish orange stipe. -

Are there cystidia images of this mushroom? I think its a new species myself. Ive seen alutacea and I dont think these are that although some of them do look quite similar. A characteristic I remember of alutecea was the very strong lines on the cap margin that really stood out. Great find and really great documenting of the macroscopic features. If I were you id get a gill fragment to Inski in NZ as he can post some great photos of the cystidia which some believe are important for identification (DNA of course being the best and its great that Alan is sequencing these). -
