Talk:Mycena
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I added a picture of Mycena rosella, just so the article has a picture. The quality isn't that good, but I don't have any other pictures of Mycena mushrooms that've been identified.
The other picture I have is better, but I don't know which Mycena it is.

I added the sentance "Mycena cyanorhiza stains blue and contains the hallucinogen psilocybin [1] and Mycena pura contains the mycotoxin muscarine.". I am sure that Mycena cyanorhiza stains blue and I know that Mycena pura contains muscarine, but I have never seen a trip report from a Mycena, so I don't know if the psilocybin part is true. This reference says it contains psilocybin: http://www.museocivico.rovereto.tn.it/UploadDocs/104_art09-Guzman%20&%20C.pdf
This picture shows the bluing of Mycena cyanorhiza:
