Could mental illness be caused by gut microbes? For example could schizophrenia be caused by hallucinogenic gut microbes ?

I remember reading that gut microbes could affect mental health.
I was thinking this could be similar to H pylori.
Has anyone tested the hallucinogenic gut microbe idea before? How are gut microbes mapped?
