P. niveotropicalis

Psilocybe niveotropicalis is a recently described, wood-loving, bluing hallucinogenic mushroom discovered in South Florida in 2019. It's taxonomically placed near other tropical Psilocybe species, distinguished by its lighter cap coloration, unique spore morphology, and significant alkaloid content.

Description

• Cap: 20–45 mm diameter; convex to broadly umbonate, sometimes sharply umbonate in youth; Hygrophanous, smooth, oily sheen. Fresh colors range pale white to yellowish, drying to brownish or gray with a golden/orange umbo; Translucent striations at the margin reveal gill outlines when moist.
• Gills: Adnexed (narrowly attached), start pale rusty, maturing to dark purple-brown with lighter edges.
• Stipe (Stem): 15–55 mm long × 2–8 mm thick, slender, cylindric; whitish to sorrel-brown, bruises blue when handled. Prominent persistent annulus (ring) that often blues with age. Base with white rhizomorphs, sometimes embedded in substrate like a taproot.
• Spore Print: Dark purplish-brown.
• Spores (Microscopic): ~8.9–10.2 × 7–8.4 µm; Rhomboid in face view, with unusually high variability. Many show deep apical clefts or bifid shapes, a distinctive character uncommon in other Psilocybe.
