Panaeolus foenisecii, commonly called the mower's mushroom, haymaker, haymaker's panaeolus,[2] or brown hay mushroom, is a very common and widely distributed little brown mushroom often found on lawns and is not an edible mushroom. In 1963 Tyler and Smith found that this mushroom contains serotonin, 5-HTP and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid.[3] In many field guides it is listed as psychoactive; however, the mushroom does not produce any hallucinogenic effects.
