Please post all information regarding conocybe siligineoides here.

Conocybe Siligineoides is a sacred fungus endemic only to Mexico, reportedly found growing on wood. No chemical studies have ever been done and unlike C. Cyanopsis and C. Smithii, psilocybin has not been isolated in this mushroom, though it is not to say that it doesn't exist in it. Although it was collected in Oaxaca, Mexico in 1955 by Gordon Wasson, there are no additional reports of it having been found since despite extensive fieldwork by Gaston Guzman.

The common name for this particular fungus is Ya'nte and is listed in Schedule I in the United States and Australia.
