Conocybe siligineoides, also known as cone caps, Ya'nte, Ta'a'ya, or Tamu,[1] is a species of macro-fungus in the family Bolbitiaceae. It has seldom been observed by the mycological community with all specimens having been collected in Mexico. Originally reported as a sacred mushroom, no chemical studies have been undertaken on this species although other members of the same genus have been shown to contain psilocybin, which causes strong hallucinations.[2] They are crushed, dried, and used in tea, and consumed fresh.[1]
