Psilocybe libertatis

Based on Agaricus libertatis Batsch and transferred to Psilocybe by Hennings in 1898. The few herbarium specimens are from Portugal around 1902–1903, from stream margins, damp sandy ground and meadows. Its modern identity is unclear. Whether it contains psilocybin is not documented here; many Psilocybe do and are controlled in many countries, so check local law before any cultivation.

Where it grows wild

Portuguese collections grew at the edges of streams, in damp sandy places and in meadows: open, moist grassy ground.

Portuguese records from São Fiel (Castelo Branco) are low to mid-elevation; exact elevations are not given.
