Psilocybe togoensis

Psilocybe togoensis was described by Hennings in 1891 from material collected in Togo, West Africa. There are no GBIF records and no modern account in the sources reached, so the conditions below come from the humid tropical climate of Togo and the genus. Many Psilocybe species contain psilocybin, a controlled substance in many countries; check local law before cultivating.
