Copelandia Cyanescens (Blue Meanies) in NZ
    #5444958 - 03/26/06 07:09 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

Does Copelandia Cysnescens grow in New Zealand in the Summer or the Winter? I'm getting conflicting answers as a lot of people say no Actives grow in New Zealand past Autumn/Winter.

Where I live (mediterranean climate) we have dry summers and wet winters, during spring and summer its way too dry for panaeolus mushrooms. They tend to show up when there is a lot of humidity, around autumn before it gets too cold. So unless you live in a sub/tropical area than I doubt you would see copelandia or panaeolus mushrooms fruiting during spring or summer.

I always hear a lot of people around my area finding "Blue Meanies" in paddocks so I'm quite sure they are around here. You could argue some get them confused with wood-chip psilocybes as one young lad pointed out a while back when he referred to a P. Makarorae as a "Blue Meanie" but then again wood-chip psilocybes don't grow in/around dung/cow patties.

I am going to have an educated guess and say they grow around Autumn (Right now) because it's still warmish due to being the few months after summer and there seems to be more rain around this time as it has bin raining constantly for 10 days in my area so far.

Warmish temps + rain = Wet and Humid --- Which as far as I know is what these dung loving psilocybes grow well in.

I have another question - I keep referring to these as Copelandia Cyanescens, is that an old classification? Is the new one Pan. Cyanescens? Or is it a transexual and can be called both?

That picture looks similar to the "Pouch Fungi" that not many people know about in NZ. People have said this particular fungi can display intense blueing so it's reasonable that these would also be called "Blue Meanies". Which part of NZ do you live in?

Well Blue Meanies are in New Zealand and so are liberty caps.

One liberty cap was even collected from a lawn in Auckland.

Go to http://www.erowid.org and read Magic Mushrooms of Australia and New Zealand.

There are several woodland species similar to p. subaeruginosa and there are no P. cubensis in New Zealand unless they were grown indoors in someones cellar or atic.

I wouldn't trust my life with that diagram.
MJShroomer - any chance of finding Cyanescens here in Tasmania
sorry, this isn't NZ, but it's close enough geographically.
peace

The closest distance between Tasmania and New Zealand is nearly 1,700 kilometers. This is slightly more than 1/24th the equatorial circumference of the globe. Might as well say you are geographically close to Brisbane.

A liberty cap found in Auckland. That's bloody terrific. Last year I was searching for liberty caps around fields etc. until I read on multiple websites they only seem to grow in the South Island where it is cooler. I live in the Bay of Plenty, which is further south than Auckland so I'll have to keep my eyes open.

As for finding Pan./Cop. Cyanescens I've also read they grow around coastal areas - Does that mean they don't -have- to grow in Cow Shit?

I read Magic Mushrooms of Australia and New Zealand multiple times in the past, it's well done and if you live in those countries you should give it a read.

Does anyone know of any extensive Mushroom Identification books that are up to date and have a huge list of New Zealand mushrooms? I've already got a guide but it's hardly extensive, just covers the most common mushrooms with only one psilocybe listed.

That drawing does look like the hallucinogenic NZ Weraroa (pouch fungi) species which is called "Blue Meanies" by the locals. I am pretty sure the species or that it is psilocybin active hasn't been documented in the scientific literature.



Weraroa post

Attempts to cultivate this species are underway and have progressed to the primordia stage invitro.

oh true, is the pouch fungi hallusinagenic? where abouts can you find it? is it dangerous?

A lot of people say it produces a different trip to the more well-known psilocybes. It does contain psilocybin as evident in the bluing but I wonder if there are other alkaloids that have a synergistic effect on the trip.

Mr_Mushie_12345 You really need a better description than a few photos for a decent ID but I'd have to say those aren't blue meanies. For one, blue meanies don't grow in bark.

Mr_mushie, mate, those aren't the pouch fungi, they are not even close. Those are coprinus, aka 'inky caps'. Common as hell and 100% useless. They are a fungal equivalent of a weed. And as for your other ones, waaaay off the mark as well, definitley not anything useful and even if they were they are way past their prime.

Please don't go and just pick any mushroom that you find and then post pictures here asking if it's magic...it clutters up the board and is just a general pain in the butt. I mean I am not a mod or anything but just after seeing so many hundreds of these kinds of posts it just gets a little tiring.

I'm all for people asking for IDs if they have obviously already made an effort to research it and ID themselves first. Read the FAQ, read MJ's guide, read last years NZ thread and look at all of the pictures. Then, go and look for mushrooms. If you find any, check to see that they at least roughly fit the description of what you're looking for. Then, take some decent pics, take a spore print, and post up as much of a description as you can give. That is how you will make progress.

And MagicalKnife, yes, copes do have to grow in cow shit. When coastal areas are mentioned, it referrs to dairy farms of the North Island which often come very close to the coast if not right up to the beach.

MJ - your basing that on anecodotes - I highly doubt that Paneaolus cyanescens grows anywhere in New Zealand simply because it isnt a warm and humid environment like that in northern NSW southern QLD.
Maybe up North near Whangarai would be your safest bet. But even then if youd been there i think youd agree that its nothing like the kind of environment where panaeolus cyanescens are found.
From what ive heard the mushroom people talk about as blue meanies in NZ is either a woodlover or a strange qhite blob-like thing that stains blue. I have no idea what that is and the dude who sent me pics disappeared.
I could be wrong - so post some pics and finds and prove it, but dont take stock on books that report Ps.australiana as a seperate species when studies demonstrated in 1993 that it wasnt.

You wont get Panaeolus cyanescens in Tasmania - its way to cold down there. I doubt youd even get cubies which makes me wonder how that strain is supposed to come from there...
