Psilocybe Cubensis
P.cubensis or Mexican mushroom has a characteristic umbrella or cap, which is why it is also called Golden cap mushroom. It contains 0.63% of psilocybin, 0.60% of psilocin, and 0.25% of baeocystin, therefore more potent.
Psilocybe Baeocystis
Psilocybe baeocystis, also known as a bottlecap or bluebell, is found growing near the coastline. It contains 0.85% of psilocybin, 0.59% of psilocin, and 0.10% of baeocystin along with other non-psilocybin alkaloids.
