"Laccaria Amethystina" commonly known as Amethyst Deceiver. 💜🍄
An edible mushroom and usually found in all types of woodlands. The stunning bright purple color signifies its youth, but it fades to pale brown or tan with age and weathering. Because of fading, it could easily be confused with the potentially deadly Lilac Fibrecap. 💜💀

My first entry for Funguary even though the month is almost over, coz I'm always fashionably late lol. It do be like that. 🤷🏻‍♀️😅

l. amethystina description :
"the cap is 1–6 cm in diameter, & is initially convex, later flattening, & often with a central depression (navel). when moist it is a deep purplish lilac, which fades upon drying out. it is sometimes slightly scurfy at the center, & has pale striations at the margin. the stem is the same colour as the cap, & has whitish fibrils at the base, which become mealy at the top. it is fibrous, hollow, fairly tough when rolled in the fingers, with dimensions of 0.6 to 7 centimetres (0.24 to 2.76 in) long by 0.1 to 0.7 centimetres (0.039 to 0.276 in) thick. the flesh is without a distinctive taste or smell, & is thin, with pale lilac coloration. the gills are colored as the cap, often quite distantly spaced, & are dusted by the white spores; their attachment to the stem is sinuate—having a concave indentation before attaching to the stem."

🍄 Funguary 20: Amethyst Deceiver
They're quite vulnerable while juvenile. Mature deceivers will wave their inverted bells wildly to scare off predators. It's surprisingly effective.

Amethyst deceiver (Laccaria amethystina)
Just gorgeous.
CORRECTION: This is a wood blewit (Lepista nuda) which I didn’t look at nearly carefully enough before posting, because they’re easy to tell apart if you do! Amythest decievers have decurrent gills (they run down the stipe), whereas blewits have sinuate gills (they attach near the top of the stipe, very slightly curving down it).

Laccaria amethyst-occidentalis (Amethyst Deceiver) from right before the pandemic started in 2020. This was actually the last camping trip I've taken so I hope I can do more camping in the near future
