alatos Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 These do not look like mica cap to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynard Posted April 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 The spore print was brown. Any one else have any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby b Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 Looks like a Conocybe. Two toned, Hygrophanous. ?? Conocybe's spore print is cinnamon brown. In the warmer months I see Conocybe apala in areas of cut grass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 Genus Conocybe is a reasonable proposal. Conocybe mushrooms have reddish-brown, cinnamon, or rusty brown spore prints. I'd also consider Panaeolus, in particular P. foenisecii. In some older field guides this species is listed as Psathyrella foenisecii or Panaeolina foenisecii. P. foenisecii has a very dark purplish-brown spore print. Other species of Panaeolus have black spore prints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynard Posted April 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 I’m definitely seeing the reasoning for P. Foenisecii. My guide says these are possibly psychoactive but that it’s widely debated. Thanks for the help everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 Could also be a species of Psathyrella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
