User's notes

A distinct intense sky-blue colour make this species very easy to recognize. Note also the longitudinal twist of the stem. As this one ages the cap turns brown and the gills become a pinkish brown with the maturing spores.

The green bruising also indicates this species. I found one this afternoon while looking at something else. Woo hoo!! You've captured some good diagnostic characters. Just love those lamellae (gills).
