Scientists just discovered a new species of magic mushroom, Psilocybe ochraceocentrata, that appears to have shared a common ancestor with the popular Psilocybe cubensis some 1.5 million years ago.
Where did magic mushrooms come from? Scientists just got closer to an answer

Psilocybe yungensis that I found Feb '25 in Pastaza, Ecuador.
This species gets its name from the Yungas region of Bolivia, where it was discovered in 1958.

A Psilocybe I photographed yesterday in Ecuador - perhaps undescribed. 750 meters elevation, a semi-tropical habitat, growing on the ground / well decayed leaf litter.

Psilocybe hoogshagenii from Pastaza, Ecuador - growing on the ground near some coffee plants.
Guzman's 1983 monograph places this in Psilocybe section Cordisporae, however my DNA barcode results show that it is actually in section Mexicanae.

This relatively potent species stains blue very little and has unusually high levels of baeocystin.
