...I was wondering what is the purpose of psilocybin for the shroom, i.e. is it to help it fight bacteria, molds, insects, nematodes - what?
No one really knows. My suggestion is you eat a bunch, contemplate it, come back to reality and and tell us why they do it.
off topic -- flaming over spelling -- REALLY?!
no the guys just a dick and a troll, hes better at it than i am.

Due some actualy reading from some books and you will learn something

Psilocybin is a defense mechanism. It may also be a symbiotic relationship the mushrooms have with animals that eat them for the effects the mushrooms cause, thus insuring the spores get spread... As far as being a poison goes, it really isn't as psilocybin is very closely related structurally to DMT which occurs naturally in the brain. Also, its pretty difficult to overdose and die from mushrooms and it isn't toxic. I don't really see it fitting into that category at all.

But in all seriousness, it does seem like it would be a defense mechanism

REINDEER GO TOTALLY FUCKING BONKERS FOR AMANITA MUSCARIA.
those behooven beasts spend hours pawing and chewing at the snow, looking for shrooms to chow down on.
shamans in reindeer zone say they see the great reindeer god when they eat the same mushroom.
from tom volk: "Some animals also use Amanita muscaria for recreational purposes. I have observed squirrels in Wisconsin guarding over a cache of these mushrooms up in a tree. It has also been reported that reindeer (caribou) in the northern climates also seek out and eat Amanita muscaria for their euphoric effects."

...so from now on we're ignoring syeinstrife, yes? Safe assumption?
I did some clicking around on the 'net, and actually didn't find much on the how or why they produce psilocybin. Maybe they don't? Maybe they produce something molecularly similar that does some sciencey thing and combines with another chemical in our brains to create psilocybin...?
...Probably not, yeah, but it's a thought.

Ya, that's exactly what I said, it doesn't act fast enough to be a defense mechanism. To the poster who mentioned snakes and tarantulas as being venomous for defense...sorry, your wrong about that. They have venom to kill prey they are going to eat. Predatory mechanism not defense. Not trying to split hairs but...
I'm telling you, it is simply a chemical that is produced due to certain genetics and variables coming together that happen to cause a psycho active response in humans. We don't even know if animals would be affected by psilocybin, therefore how could we conclude that it's for defense?
