Thanks to the expeditions of the naturalist Dr. Fabio Mao Valletta (@naturalmao / #mao.valletta), who is focusing the "project PsiloSoma" and who belives that magic mushrooms are all around us just we need to know better their envirovments, biodiversity, chemistry and distribution. We can show a first official map of verified magic mushrooms around the mediterranean area.
You are welcome to follow, take part, and support the project PsiloSoma on this platform and we are on linkedin and Instagram too. A first video about this project of study and an invitation to cooperateon the Youtube channel "naturalmao" at link https://youtu.be/EXenHwH_TF8 ; hopefully we will make oder ones. You can stay in contact or follow the updates on that you tube channel, linkedin or instagram too. You can contact on the email psilosoma.project@gmail.com and, among other things, you can add your oservation to this project, send us samples to study, dinamyze data sharing, suggest species and envirovments around or invite us to explore the biodiversity of shrooms in your area.

Interesting, any idea if they could be found in Greece too?

Posted by ioio5 over 1 year ago

I belive that are all around us just we need to know better their envirovments and biodiversity

Posted by naturalmao over 1 year ago

Wise. Found some again, today - but they were weirder than the ones I found yesterday - the gills were not dark brown, but more like a lighter brown, oh well. Posted the pics - and you can check out other interesting mushies I found around this area (Romania)

Posted by ioio5 over 1 year ago

about greece looks like nord mountains have lakes, altitudes and ecological patterns suggesting should grow p. semilanceata and serbica. and going to warmer ecosystems related to horses and other big mammals could grow some more tropical specimens. one day I would like to explore olympus mountain, maybe there are shrooms for get connected to the gods.

Perfect! I guess November would be the perfect temperature. Been to Thassos island, nice mountains area and it's in the North... Very easy for us to get there.
Meanwhile I've been to the mountains here yesterday. Nice trip, took lots of photos and added shroomies to my observations. Went back home with a big bag full of honey mushrooms. And a few of other specimens to dry ;-)
