The Psilocybe Tampanensis ATL#7 Spore Syringe offers a unique opportunity to study a recently reclassified Psilocybe species known for its large sclerotia formation. Originally thought to be Psilocybe atlantis, this strain was later identified as a variety of Psilocybe tampanensis, a species traditionally found in Florida. This particular strain, ATL#7, was collected from Georgia, USA, and is highly sought after for its distinctive ability to form large sclerotia, making it a fascinating subject for microscopy and taxonomy research.
Each sterile syringe is filled with spores suspended in an aqueous solution, and a 1.5-inch 16ga needle is provided for easy inoculation. This syringe is perfect for those interested in studying Psilocybe species, particularly Psilocybe tampanensis and its relatives like Psilocybe mexicana and Psilocybe galindoi.
Key Features:
Sterile Syringe: Contains 10cc BD Luer-Lok syringe with sterile aqueous solution of Psilocybe tampanensis ATL#7 spores.
Needle Included: Comes with a 1.5-inch 16ga needle for accurate and safe spore inoculation.
Strain Details:
Habitat: Enriched soils and grasslands.
Climate: Warm temperate.
Strain Origin: Georgia, USA.
Cap: 10-30+ mm in diameter, broadly convex to plane at maturity. The surface is dry and smooth.
Stem: 100-150 mm in length. Flesh bruises bluish green when injured. Partial veil cortinate.
Gills: Adnate to adnexed attachment.
Spores: 9.8-11.2 microns, subrhomboid to subellipsoid shape, dark purplish brown spore deposit.
Notable Comments:
Sclerotia Formation: This strain is particularly noted for its ability to form large sclerotia, making it a valuable subject of study.
Strain History: Initially identified as Psilocybe atlantis, genetic testing revealed this species to be a variety of Psilocybe tampanensis, previously only found in Florida.
Similar Species: The strain shares similarities with Psilocybe galindoi (galindii), a species previously only known from Mexico.
Research Significance: This spore collection is ideal for taxonomy and microscopic examination, offering insights into the Psilocybe tampanensis species and its relationship to other Psilocybe species.
