I know people say Amanita muscaria is hallucinogenic, but my understanding is that it is pretty poisonous. Liberty Cap (Psilocybe semilanceata), on the other hand, is also common in Europe at least, and of course is well known to be very hallucinogenic and not poisonous. So if you were gonna depict a hallucinogenic mushroom wouldn't you choose Liberty Cap?
