Psilocybe neoxalapensis

A small Psilocybe described from Veracruz, Mexico. Almost all GBIF records are from Mexican uplands at 1,500–2,600 m. Beyond its original description little is known about its ecology, so these conditions rest on the measured climate. Its genus is controlled in many countries.
