the Magic of Mexico official thread
    #8581512 - 06/30/08 07:21 PM (2 months, 4 days ago)

hello  all,
today is the last day of june , july  is coming  and that mean the explosion of all the mycodiversity.
Mexico is one of the places of the world that you could find all .i make i wild guees,  the mayority of species of mushrooms  not only psilocybe but from all , i guees after my 10 year  looking , hunting and learning i came to the conclucion the mexican territory has only been study 30 %  so we have  the rest 70% to find  many new things, we have many climates, microclime and vegetation, elevation from  sea level to 4800 meters above sea level , than make tropical area, sub tropical, temperate  and alpine areas places for  diferent mushrooms to explote . diferent vegetation  and types of earth and minerals, if you add the antique  culture of use of mushrooms and tradictional knoleghe , there are more hidding thing that  the ones that are know , that is Mexico  mysterius, big and Magical.
here the people from the mountains farmer and indias , pray to the lord for a good rainy season , for a  good seasom of mushrooms and vegetables, here a kid can learn to enjoy the most gourment  food, in the cold house  by a wood fire, with  his tortillas  , why  we should need more than the morning sun and  the wind blow , can you ask for more  when you have all, can you learn  to  valorate nature,
Yes that some part of Mexico , the part i love most  to live free  in la sierra.that`s my goal

this thread is to  pass this felling to you , to make laugh, cry, fell, even hear the spirits of mushrooms , life is mysterius ,  life is the vehicle  to  understanding .

why i said all this i dont know , i just think is the mushroom spirit that i can`t hold  for miself .......

Gracias gram Misterio , por la vida , por la alegria , por el deseo , por todo lo malo y todo lo bueno , por un dia mas , por estar aqui , por ver la luz del sol , por cerrar los ojos  y soñar . gracias Gran Misterio ....


this thread will reflect in the best of my posibilities a little bit of the mycodiversity around i will try to update  every time i can , if any one like to add pictures from Mexican territory, be my guees , i will love to seee more find of other people .

first of all  dont ever smoke of a indians pipe is not worth it .

ganoderma  sp . found on Abies religiosa tree.maybe lobatun since only  curtussi and lobatum are registered to that specific area,

some times is good to make friendships  with  the guerrillas in la sierra, here a small comando that love to party , so we did ....

the chechenians  camarade they call thenself , their idiology is to protect the forets and to eat mushrooms all nights.i will  join the army . hi mushroom!

la fria noche


id request : purple, no stem, taste funny is not funny ....no spore print

id request: multicolors, sticky , no bad smell , i will not taste it i had it! no spore print  but it will be black , i can predict spore prints, is a gift .:rolleyes:

just messing around is a gonfidius flocosus

okay  sulfur turf and the purple funny taste thing :brushteeth:

amanita muscaria pin not sure what variety  only specimen in sight .

if  you recognise this vegetation i will send you a full page of zapotecorum prints

sulfur pins .

the explosion

the close look


the spores

algae and mushrooms fusion to get a lichen  but still need to developed a mushrooms fase to  reproduce .

the comando will shoot any traidor  this  one was trying to get to the edible basket .

look for example what they did to this licoperdon that was laugfhing to the captain and drooling  spores.


i will not taste it ,


amanita vaginata specie tipo of the vaginata section






i bet it was scout  that show me this specie of lichen in his thread of the forest of the bay area.or close , look what i found scout the same specie grow in this cold mountains .i love the mushrooms fase  so reddish


you can sit here  , the comandos won`t mind, you can see how this could be use to guard the perimeter.




enjoy

this one is a entoloma  the picture of the gill  was so bad i erase it , i don`t think is a pluteus .

cortinarius sanguinius  or something like that


where iam alan ?

the dog and the lupinus



agrocybe  i guees look the spore color, growing from landslide with roots showing .


so how taste hypholoma capnoides ?


mama yo vi un ent!

this apear to be amanita muscaria var gueesonii  or something similar not real volva with concentric rings , but yellow dots in the volva.


and this last specimen i like if any could help with id, i guees is lentinus what you said.

Cool cactu, great start to the thread. So many beautiful photos. If your season is just starting and you've already given us so many brilliant photos, I can't wait to see what you'll be finding in the coming weeks. Mexico is amazing.

Thank you, cactu, for a wonderful thread.

Amanitas kill more people than all other mushrooms put together, so an ID of some to be eaten must be correct. An ID based on a photo on the Internets is not reliable enough to potentially risk your life on. ToxicMan

You manage to weave such rich context into your threads, this is why I enjoy them so much... how can you beat hunting with mushroom eating guerrilla fighters on or near a volcano!!!! Takes the Cake!!!!
And of course all your great imagery. We are finding some of the same things here in Kansas right now interestingly enough.

I have two guesses.... hartweg or montezuma pine?

mushroom eating guerrilla fighters on or near an extinct volcano





Nevado de Colima is extinct however 5 km away there is the most active volcano in Mexico, Volcán de Colima.  Mexican government cleared out the nearest town because they say there is too much danger of eruption.  The people didn't want to leave and the army turned part of the town into a base to try and force them out.  So instead of a town full of people there are a few people on the edges and a bunch of army people all over, I am not sure how that is any safer. 

I bet the guerrilla fighters have some strong opinions about the situation.

haha  no way weilliiiiiii that is not a real rifle , and those are my friend dress like militian and we thought it was funny , there is no guerrilla here it was a joke , but thinking good maybe is time to make one that a natural reserve you can not have guns or such there , you know the fight  is with  ourself and the idea is to conquist the mind.

-you remenber well alan , and i was sure it was a lentinus could be lipideus  , all specimen i have seem are  white no like this ones, maybe a  diferent lentinus  since is growing in 3500 meter of altitute.



-thank you Phish_Dude

-lqdtrance  you did get it .
