In November 2020, the state of Oregon became the first U.S. state to both decriminalize psilocybin and also legalize it for supervised non-medical use after the Ballot Measure 109 passed. [ 1 ] In November 2020, the District of Columbia passed initiative 81; the short title of the initiative was the Entheogenic Plant and Fungus Policy Act of ...
The most potent species are members of genus Psilocybe, such as P. azurescens, P. semilanceata, and P. cyanescens, but psilocybin has also been isolated from approximately a dozen other genera, including Panaeolus (including Copelandia), Inocybe, Pluteus, Gymnopilus, and Pholiotina.

Psilocybe lazoi Singer (this is a doubtful neurotropic species, considered first by Guzmán (1983) as a synonym of Psilocybe zapotecorum, but Singer, 1986, claimed that this is a non-bluing fungus independent of that of Guzmán, 1983]
Separately, state Rep. Dennis Tipsword, R-Metamora, expressed concern that Illinois could potentially legalize psilocybin, which is classified as a Schedule 1 drug under the Controlled Substances Act.
Possession and use of psilocybin mushrooms, including the bluing species of Psilocybe, is therefore prohibited by extension. However, in many national, state, and provincial drug laws, there has been a great deal of ambiguity about the legal status of psilocybin mushrooms, as well as a strong element of selective enforcement in some places.
In 2007, a paper by Redhead et al. proposed conserving the genus Psilocybe with Psilocybe semilanceata as its type species. [5] The suggestion was accepted by unanimous vote of the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi of the International Botanical Congress in 2010, meaning that P. semilanceata (a member of the bluing clade) now serves as the type species of the genus.

As a relatively recently identified species, there is evidence that its range is currently undergoing rapid expansion, and it is frequently reported to appear in new areas. Psilocybe cyanescens, Psilocybe allenii, and Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata are known to thrive in urban and suburban environments, particularly in mulch beds [1]
