psilocybe coprophila?
    #5813491 - 07/02/06 08:26 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

does anyone know if psilocybe coprophila is active? I am 99% sure i have located this species but I am unsure of its value as an active species.. As both guides I have describe it as a species thats not recommended for consumption, and the mushrooms i have located fit the description of psilocybe coprophila to the T... so I was just curious if anyone knew anything more about this species

No, they are not active. Good for improving your ID skills though.

Definitely inactive. There has been some debate over the subject, but mostly from hopeful shroom-heads.

Hi Shroomey Dan,

Here are some images of P. coprophila by Arthur and Stevens. Used with permission.,


They are a non-active speices, often erroneously clasified by straight mycologists and some Law Enforcement officials who took some short courses on mycology and listed them or wrote of them as possibly hallucinogenic or sometimes hallucinogenic, or related to hallucinogenic species, many have warnings regarding them as such.

All misinformation because at the time of the early guides, the world of psilocybian mushrooms was just being written by scholars and students in school who relied on a couple dozen articles which led them to believe they were hallucinogenic.

Psilocybe argentipes is a psychopactive shroom Blue Meanie. IT was P. collybiodes form argentina which is in Austra;lia and is not psychoactive.

The P. argentipes is common in japan,

here are 4 images.

Why does it contain Psilocybe in its genre specifications?

I went to st thomas and camped out ontop of the island... Despite my entire family being poor all my life, the land is priceless.
I was chased by haitians in the main city charlotte amalie when my girlfriend and I got some cocaine for free in a bar and mixed it with alcohol, to form a stronger drug. With such confidence at 2am, we walked the 4-5 or so miles down to the beach where the african slaves lie like lions waiting on tourist prey.


The war isen't on drugs... the war is on the causes that influence people to abuse drugs. drug-abuse is a by-product of the system and much like radioactive waste occurs from utilizing nuclear power, drug addicts with drug-problems will need to be properly disposed of, like the decaying radioactive waste produced from nuclear energy. -i2ancid

There are over 100 non-active Psilocybes in the genus Psilocybe.

And more than 120 which are psilocybian.

In my 2000 paper with Guzman and Gartz, we havee 115 Psilocybes which were active.

The new list will provide more than about 130 species now known to contain psilocine/psilocybin.

As I noted above, the species was errorneosly placed in/and grouped it with some of its known hallucniogenic cousins.

Fir instance:

Stamets (1978, Psilocybe Mushrooms and Their Allies) reported that:
Comments: This mushroom readily fades upon drying and the margin loses its translucent-striate appearance. Some strains have been reported to be hallucinogenic, though weakly so. See also P. augustispora, P. subviscida and P. merdaria.

18 years later, Stamets (1996) wrote in his revised comments:
Does not produce psilocine or psilocybine. [Excerpted:]
some strains have been reported to be slightly, although weakly, active. Guzmán (1983, 227) suggests that analyses by Repke and Leslie may have shown a positive eresult from a mixed collection. No other reports of activity are known to me. See Also P. augustispora, P. subviscida and P. merdaria.

So it is not a psychoactive species.
