Psilocybe subalnetorum

Described by Guzmán and Horak in 1978; the epithet suggests growth under alder. GBIF's only records are from Maui, Hawaii, in October and November, including a collection in manured pasture. Whether it contains psilocybin is not documented; if it does, it is controlled in many countries, so check local law before cultivating.

Where it grows wild

Maui records are from manured pasture ground and roadside ground on the upper Kula slopes. The type habitat, presumably under alder, is not confirmed here.
