Comment on Psilocybe sp. (7050)

Summary: Not sure about P. montana

Comment:

I’m sure at this point that these are Psilocybe, but I’m not sure about P. montana. There wasn’t any cheilocystidia obs. here, but it turns out that is weird, there aren’t any temperate Psilocybes listed that don’t have cheilocys., although there are Psilocybes somewhere listed that don’t have cyst.

That same day I found a bunch of Psilocybe that in the end I called P. montana, and you can look at the comments for that obs. Those look very different from these, so it is a little confused. I would say these are different species, but I’m sure I could not say which one is P. montana.

But we can dump these in P. montana until we get enough obs. to try and see which are what. And at some point I was going to get back to these and check the cheilocys. to make sure of this.
