Cortinarius sp.
Commonly called "webcaps".
Young cortinarius mushrooms have a veil-like structure called a cortina between their cap and stem, which usually vanishes as they mature. Worldwide, it's estimated over two thousand species of cortinarius exist.

FOTD #088 : elegant blue webcap! (cortinarius rotundisporus)
the elegant blue webcap is a basidiomycete fungus in the family cortinariaceae. it is currently only found in aotearoa & sourthern australia ; it grows in rainforests & eucalypt forests :-)
the big question : can i bite it??
the edibility is unknown.
c. rotundisporus description :
"the cap ranges from 2.5 to 7 cm (1–3 in) in diameter, & is initially convex before flattening. it has a slight boss that is mustard-, honey- or cream-yellow tinged & steely blue elsewhere. the adnate gills are creamy or lilac-tinged early, & darken with the spores. the slender 5–7.5 cm (2–3 in) stipe lacks a ring; it is pale yellow or white with a tinge of the cap colour. the flesh is yellowish & may have a lilac or pale blue tinge."

two questions.
Sozo what's 9+10
do you know of the Cortinarius violaceus?
It is 19. Obviously.
Cortinarius violaceus, common name; Violet Webcap. A lovely purple mushroom. Typically with a tall stipe and textured cap. Some say they are edible but just not worth it as they do not taste as distinct as they look. However consuming them may cause extreme stomach pain and other adverse health affects. It is recommended not to consume any type of cortinarius mushrooms due to this common trait.
