can anybody tell me what family this comes from and if it contains psilocybin?

Danke

They look like some type of Psathyrella, but its not possible to say unless you provide the more information (and even then it may be difficult)

Photograph the top of the cap as well as the gills and stem in detail.

Take a spore print! And describe its color (VERY important!)

Describe what part of the country you found them in, As well as what they were growing on and how they were growing there.

Describe cap: (conical, umbonate, etc..)

Describe stem:

Describe gills:

Describe Spore print color:

Describe what they were growing on (habitat) (grass, wood chips, pine-straw, dung, etc...)

Describe what state and country you found them and what time of year you found them growing.


If this information is provided you will get an ID.

Heya Mohan, i shared your picture on the shroomery and it looks like it may be a Coprinus/Ink cap, unfortunately not an active species.

I know that in Madagascar they have Panaeolus cyanescens & Panaeolus cinctulus. I'd be heading to cattle pastures after the rains and keeping an eye out for those species, along with Psilocybe cubensis.

Hope you find what you're looking for

Thanks for the reply. After ingesting a huge amount with local made honey, i could experience a change in perception and what i may call refraction of light and some partial colours. They are from compost in a sugar cane field from my island , Mauritius. Yes right to Madagascar.

Thanks for the answer swarupa it is excatly this. I have got a lot of them lying in my house now. Dunno what to do with them

You've definitely IDd those as pans? They look like neither I'm familiar with. They really ( kinda) look like ink caps to me, which are edible but not psychoactive.

If they are pans , which judging by the fact you've already consumed and felt a perception shift they are, they are a weaker psilocybin spp.

Any active find is a good find in my book tho.



I dont know, if you're confident of the id, call me crazy but I'd say eat them?

HAPPY TRAILS!

along with them were some mad cubensis which i read grows alongside. Good times ahead.

(The picture stopped working)

They are probably Coprinellus disseminatus

though in the picture the splitting of the stems and lack of "ink" or caps melting into ink made it look to me like Psathyrella candolleana, or some pasture psathyrella, and these two mushrooms have little in common taxonomically, which should speak a to the inaccuracy of photograph identification when no other information is provided.

I don't understand how anybody can give you a confirmed ID from a picture of a pile of mushrooms without a spore print or taxonomic and environmental information, but some can I guess...ultimately it is you that must be confident in your final identification, because your the one who may suffer the consequences if you made a mistake.

(I know this should go without saying but it is very dangerous to consume wild mushrooms that have not been identified, and as a rule of thumb should never be done. many mushrooms can be hard to identify and may have toxic look alikes, all it takes is a single mistake and your dying of organ failure...)

I'll second that, EG
