0 PD. Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Looks to me like semi ob. I have found plenty of subs that look ALOT like semis but that looks like the real deal imo.

0 Chiral Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Yeah I'd very confident man, I used to pick thousands of em in wales back in the day and they look identical to those, I have some photo's..old school on paper...that i'll try and retake via my canon and put them up for comparison.what to do now that you found em is the question as they are particularly difficult to cultivate by hand...https://www.shaman-australis.com/forum/applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=http://www.thenook.org/forum/style_emoticons/default/think.gif&key=825213e3ddb91024d1f673e6818a73572d9416deda05867613aaef23b9e05c37 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 gerbil Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Now that is impressive, even the field shots look pretty damn 'classic' for ID. Should print them and get em under the scope to confirm and for fun.Got any vague idea on altitude found at?Really cool man, thanks for that.

0 MORG Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Wow. That is cool. Never ever seen these before. I agree, you should provide a report for FungiMap. They have an observation record sheet you can download.M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mycot Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) First report of Australian semis with verifying pics I've seen.Love the way they look. Totally blown away. Edited April 26, 2010 by Mycot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 obtuse Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) few more pics:this one has quite a brown stem as does one in the first lot of pictures. from what i can see the younger ones have white stems.these were found on a cattle farm, one of the back grazing paddocks in the shade facing south, about 400 - 450 ft above sea level altitude, lots of dew - like really wet dew.they have that awesome stickyness on the cap that subs have, and the stems are quite fibrous in the same way, so they certainly feel like psilocybe sp. to hold.they dry out really quick tho.I am taking a print for further identification purposes.

0 JDanger Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) This thread makes me oh-so-happy. Love your work.[edit] Obtuse, can you wrap the stem around your pinkie? Apparently that's another indicator (not that I'm unconvinced). Edited April 26, 2010 by JDanger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Ace Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Absolutely stunning. Textbook specimens. If they are not P. semilanceata, I'll eat my favourite hat. As a matter of fact, I'd eat a stack of hats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tripsis Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Wow, how did I miss this thread? They certainly do look like P. semilanceata! Awesome find Ob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 tripsis Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 So, did you send away away gill samples for further identification, or make any herbarium deposits? If these are indeed P. semilanceata, which they do appear to be, it's a pretty important find.Were any bioassayed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mycot Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 (edited) Wow, how did I miss this thread? They certainly do look like P. semilanceata! Awesome find Ob. I always felt this thread should have been in the main mycology forum so peeps wouldn't miss it.Perhaps it can be moved over for greater awareness along with some hint of semi's in the thread title.As you say "it's a pretty important find" and awesome.

0 Sola Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 This is a fantastic thread!! The field photo's links and supporting photo's are so good I feel reasonably confident I could identify this if found on a hike. But of course I'd post here to be sure. Thanks Ob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
