Weird one though those close-up pics... did you get a print off it? Looks a bit un-sub like in many ways.. It has a cap like another kind of Psilocybe, a viscid cap edge which is strange, a very dark stem, very swirly fibrillose stem.. were they all like that? *strokes beard* innntervestink..

yeah...I went right through all of em carefully and they are all subs...there is quite a lot of variation in the one species and quite a few of them are kinda old and drying out and frost bitten...yeah they can look different but are the same if you know what I mean...conditions specific perhaps...yeah that stem only shows up on the camera shot ey but I don't see it in the pile...mind you I didn't pick everything either sometimes i just walk over to another and take another photo...sometimes they look so magnificent and the shape is perfect.

what other type of psilocybe shroom would you consider it to be if not sub..

I do believe that #'s 1 & 4 are Galerina's And that #'s 2 & 3 & 5 are Subs!

Do I win a prize? :P

Agreed ^^^

Oh and I have suspicions on number 3, would probably leave that little man there.

Hunab: The kind of Psilocybe i was thinking of is the one a guy in another forum found growing in a pine forest in Vic. It was unidentified but from the section stuntzii i think... I haven't seen the tiny little nipple cap and strange colours of those mushrooms before when i've seen subs.

MORG: I wouldn't pick any of em!

... or at least i'd print all of them.

Subs do SOMETIMES have a slight ring, it's weird. I've found a couple with rings and i've seen other people find them with rings. In fact the ring on No. 4 does look more purple than orange so maybe that could still be a sub or even Hypholoma..

But anyway I can't see any blueing so i wouldn't say any of them are subs without a print.

I was a little devious in presenting the photo of Galerinas which made them appear most like Subs. But on this photo of more Galerinas you can see some pretty key differences that were invisible in the first pic. That annulus is the dead giveaway, the brownish-red annulus peaking out from under the cap.

So pic 5 were the Galerinas.

Pics 1, 3 and 4 are subs. The pin in pic 2 could be a sub, but hey, it's a pin so who knows.

So you can see how hard it is to reliably ID anything from photos! Take prints, take prints, take prints.

Damn you're a tricky bastid Morg you got us all there....nice work though... it constitutes harm minimisation and gives us more knowledge to spot the differences...I notice they practically can grow side by side each other to which is a real bother ....sly mothers the Galerinas that's for sure.

Cheers for the pics Morg....

What species of Galerina is it thats is generally found around the subs or is it several?

Also the spore print for a Galerina would be a light brown colour is that right??

Excellent Work there Morg B), I was almost certain I was Correct! :slap:

So it shows right here folks,

How many different opinions & conclusions people can come up with

for the same samples of Fungi.

Its great to be Pulled up every now and then like that "Patricularly at this time of year"

And use it as a reminder to take some time to Re-familiarize yourself with The processes of ID'ing all Fungi you may find, not just Subs & Gallerina's!

A good way to start this, is to find and Identify all the Fungi species within your Property or backyard and then expand eventualy to the whole neighbourhood.

Cheers.

So I saw some sub prints the other day as a test and noticed they are almost jet black... that's the colour sub prints should be yeah.

Hey there HK, What were the prints taken on? Foil, Paper?

Prints that are Thick and drop a lot of spores tend to appear Jet Black when they are actually more of a Very Dark Purple colour.

Hope this helps!

They where sub prints done simply on A4 white printing paper ..it was just a test as paper was used to see the true colour against the white background...most cubes done on foil are super dark purple.

Subs grow mainly around the mountain areas right? Ive only ever heard of people getting them that close to Sydney...Or am I mistaken??

And WOW, the rain really is coming down, obviously the aftermath of what happened in QLD...
