Dung-loving Deconica

Fungi: Basidiomycota: Agaricomycetes: Agaricales: Strophariaceae: Deconica coprophila (Bull.) P.Karst.

Deconica coprophila – dung-loving Deconica

Synonyms: Agaricus coprophilus, Geophila coprophila, Psilocybe coprophila, Stropharia coprophila.

Common name: dung-loving Deconica.

Extract from Wikipedia article: Deconica coprophila, commonly known as the dung-loving psilocybe, is a species of mushroom in the family Strophariaceae. First described as Agaricus coprophilus by Jean Baptiste François Pierre Bulliard in 1793, it was transferred to the genus Psilocybe by Paul Kummer in 1871. In the first decade of the 2000s, several molecular studies showed that the Psilocybe was polyphyletic, and the non-bluing (non-hallucinogenic) species were transferred to Deconica.

Finnish: Lantamadonlakki, Hungarian: Ganéjbadargomba, Polish: Łysiczka odchodowa, Swedish: Dyngslätskivling.
