Re: Stropharia species with blue-green colouration

Hi
I collected a Stropharia today which I am sure is S.caerulea, as it has the pointy cystidia like a babies bottle, and a concolorous gill edge, However many of the cytidia have extended curley points not unlike pigs tails, Is this a common occurence? I tried to download some photos, but the system is being difficult!
