MORG Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 A list of Australia's psychoactive flora? I'm wondering what information the list is based on. What sort of evidence is required for the plant to be listed? How many plants on here could be false positives? This is a far greater list than I would have imagined could have been built from reliable evidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prier Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 (edited) The list is really big because currently we know very little. I've included all sorts of plants, from pituri additives to really mild painkillers, I'm not saying each one is going to be an easily usable psychoactive drug, it's more a start for more research.REFERENCES:Trees and Shrubs of South Eastern Australia.

botanika Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Maybe the list could be further classified based on whether a plant is endemic/native or introduced. Many of the plants listed are exotic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MORG Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Nice work then Prier. And thanks for the references.There's no non-annoying way to say it, but you tickled my pedantry bone with caps on your species name too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torsten Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 I just lectured a queensland quarantine officer on the proper use of binomials, so I am happy to add my name to the list of pedants too <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_tongue.pngAlso, having so many exotics in there really confuses things..... I'd really like to see a well maintained list of native psychoactive plants - maybe as a group project. A short phrase that states the reason for being on the list would also be beneficial.

Pala Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Nice effort.Although I would imagine that any move towards adding detail would be useful if addressed at http://www.ethnobotanica.org/wiki/. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apothecary Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Nice effort.Although I would imagine that any move towards adding detail would be useful if addressed at http://www.ethnobotanica.org/wiki/.Yeah!I will be upgrading the software soon, and finally posting my information updates gathered from the forums (Ibogaine germination, Khat stuff, Pachycereus, and lots more)...Is anyone ever gonna put anything in the fungi section?I was gonna bug some of the cactusheads to take a shot at that section once I did the upgrade...The whole idea of the wiki was for NATIONAL propagation information, so there should definitely be a natives section. If anyone wants to put their work up there let me know and I'll create the links. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prier Posted August 13, 2006 Author Share Posted August 13, 2006 Sorry about making it so hard to read with those capital letters, i'm still learning. Would someone with the knowledge please go through and section out what's truly native and what's introduced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prier Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 Although I would imagine that any move towards adding detail would be useful if addressed at http://www.ethnobotanica.org/wiki/.I've been compiling a bit of information on all of these plants, mainly focusing on the very few from victoria first. when I have enough information I'll start adding it to ethnowiki.The idea of a group project sounds good too. if anyones interested.

prier Posted September 30, 2006 Author Share Posted September 30, 2006 Silver wattle is acacia dealbata, baileyanas common name is cootamundra wattle i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiders Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 there is a psychoactive species of Grevillia found around Yulara. Also Psilocybe australiana, eucalypta, tasmaniana and subaeruginosa are all synonymous with Ps.subaeruginosa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
occidentalis Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 acacia baileyana..psychoactive??thats the silver wattle yeah??Acacia baileyana is the cootamundra wattle as prier says, but it does have silver foliage and could be described as a silver wattle.Trout mentions it was found to contain DMT and b-carbs IIRC.

SaBReT00tH Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 how is Centella asiatica (Gotu Kola) psychoactive??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vapour Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Centella asiatica is described as a narcotic in lassak & mccarthy's 'Australian Medicinal Plants' (p 185). This in turn is probably a reference to Mrs Grieve's 'A Modern Herbal' which says "In small doses it acts as a stimulant, in large doses as a narcotic, causing stupor and headache and with some people vertigo and coma" (p 425). The chemical constituents of Centella growing in temperate zones may differ from the kind growing in northern Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horizon Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Psychotria daphnoidesPrier I saw that you included this plant in your native psychoactive list. Is there any chance that you know what alkoloids it contains or anything else really about this plant. I can't seem to find anything about it in the forums. I found a few plants in the mountains on the weekend, I was wondering if you or anyone else could help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
