Dave W Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Possibly a species of Gymnopilus. Also, Pholiota and Flammula are possibilities. Spore print looks a little dark brown for Gymnopilus (although I am not familiar with G. luteoviridis). Gymnopilus spore prints I have observed are rusty orange to rusty brown. To confidently distinguish Gymnopilus from the other similar genera, microscopic analysis of spores is recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steinz Posted December 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 They were rusty brown on the prints I should have used foil instead of white paper but I also didn't take the print until they had started drying so that made it a little darker than you for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Just happened to look again at the bottom two photos. Looks like there's several different types of mushrooms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steinz Posted December 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Yes there were 3 different types the ones with the blue all over are velvet milk caps non active but very tastey the purple looking long ones are an active species but the rest are all a species of gymnopilus either luteoviridis luteofolius or luteo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted December 6, 2018 Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 We don't discuss psychoactive properties of mushrooms on this website. There are other websites where this topic is up front. The purple mushrooms look like Laccaria amethystina. I'm not familiar with the name "velvet milk cap". Do you know the species? They look like Lactarius chelidonium or maybe L. subpurpureus.
