The classification of Salvia has long been based on the genus' unusual pollination and stamen structure, which was presumed to have evolved only once. More recently, a study using DNA sequencing of Salvia species has shown that different versions of this lever mechanism have evolved at least three different times within Salvia.

Salvia potentillifolia (salvinorin B, 2352.0 μg/g) [2] Salvia adenocaulon (salvinorin B, 768.8 μg/g) [2] For comparison, the amount of salvinorin A in S. divinorum ranges from 0.89 to 3.70 mg/g. All fractions reported are based on dry mass. [2] Interestingly, the above reported species are not very closely related to S. divinorum. [2]
In late 2002, Rep. Joe Baca (D- California) introduced a bill (Congress bill HR 5607) to schedule salvia as a controlled substance at the national level.

Daniel Siebert at the 2004 Mind States Oaxaca conference. Daniel J. Siebert was an ethnobotanist, pharmacognosist, and author who lived in Southern California. [1]Siebert had studied Salvia divinorum for over twenty years and was the first person to unequivocally identify (by human bioassays in 1993 [2]) Salvinorin A as the primary psychoactive substance of Salvia divinorum.
Salvinorin A is the main active psychotropic molecule in Salvia divinorum.Salvinorin A is considered a dissociative hallucinogen. [3] [4]It is structurally distinct from other naturally occurring hallucinogens (such as DMT, psilocybin, and mescaline) because it contains no nitrogen atoms; hence, it is not an alkaloid (and cannot be rendered as a salt), but rather is a terpenoid.
