DESCRIPTION
Psilocybe cubensis Orissa India Isolated Spores
Psilocybe cubensis Orissa India is a well-known landrace variety originally collected from the Orissa (Odisha) region of eastern India, a tropical area characterized by warm temperatures, seasonal monsoons, and nutrient-rich soils. This variety has circulated within mycological research communities for decades and is valued for its genetic stability and classic landrace traits.
Macroscopic Characteristics (Fruit Description)
Fruits typically display medium to large stature, with broad to convex caps that may flatten with maturity. Cap coloration ranges from golden caramel to light tan, often exhibiting darker central tones when fresh. The stipe is generally thick, fibrous, and white to off-white, sometimes bruising blue where handled. Gills are crowded and transition from light gray to dark purplish-brown as spores mature.

Research Notes
Orissa India spores are frequently studied due to their consistent morphology, robust sporulation, and representation of classic P. cubensis landrace genetics. Spore samples are commonly examined for comparative taxonomy, microscopy practice, and genetic lineage documentation.
