My comment:

Following reference is cited:

For centuries the actual identity of the physical soma plant sung of in the Vedas held little interest for Sanskrit scholars..... Among others plants, it has been suggested that it was the mushroom Amanita muscaria (sometimes called the Fly Agaric mushroom) [Wasson et al.], or Peganum harmala (Syrian Rue) [Flattery and Schwartz] or a species of Stropharia mushroom [McKenna, p. 166].
