Psilocybe cubensis Amazon Spore Print (PES Amazonian): A Resilient and Prolific Strain for Mycological Study

The Amazon spore print strain of Psilocybe cubensis, also known as PES Amazonian, is renowned among mycologists for its vigorous growth, resilience, and distinctive morphological features. Originally discovered in the Amazon rainforest and introduced by Pacifica Exotica Spora (PES), this strain has been a staple in the mycological community since the early 1960s. Our Amazon Spore Print offers a high-quality, sterile sample ideal for microscopic examination and taxonomic research.​

Origins and Discovery

The Amazon strain was first identified in the Amazon rainforest and later introduced to the broader mycological community by Pacifica Exotica Spora (PES). Its robust growth characteristics and adaptability to various environmental conditions have made it a subject of interest for mycological studies.​

Unique Features

Cap

The cap of the Amazon strain typically measures between 25 to 50 mm in diameter, exhibiting a convex to broadly convex shape that flattens with maturity. The coloration ranges from reddish cinnamon brown to golden brown, often displaying a pale yellow hue as it matures. The cap surface is dry, lacking remnants of the universal veil. The flesh is white and bruises bluish-green upon handling.​

Stem

Stems are sturdy and can reach lengths of 150+ mm, with a yellowish coloration. They exhibit bluish-green bruising where injured. A persistent membranous annulus (ring) from the partial veil becomes dusted with purple-brown spores at maturity.​

Gills

The gills are closely spaced and attach to the stem in an adnate to adnexed manner. They transition from a grayish coloration in young specimens to nearly black as the spores mature. The gill structure facilitates efficient spore dispersal, resulting in dense and consistent spore prints.​

Mycological Significance

The Amazon strain is esteemed for its robust genetic profile and consistent morphological characteristics. Its adaptability to various substrates and environmental conditions makes it a valuable specimen for studying fungal development and behavior. The strain’s prolific spore production ensures ample material for microscopic analysis, aiding in the exploration of spore morphology and taxonomy.​
