Amanita smithiana, also known as Smith's amanita, is a species of agaric found on soil in coniferous (Abies, Tsuga, Pseudotsuga) and broadleaved (Alnus, Quercus) woodland in the Pacific Northwest of North America. (wikipedia.org)
Amanita porphyria , also known as the grey veiled amanita , is a fairly common, inedible basidiomycete mushroom of the genus Amanita found in Europe and North America . (amanitaresearch.com)
Phalloides7
Amanita phalloides / æ m ə ˈ n aɪ t ə f ə ˈ l ɔɪ d iː z / , commonly known as the death cap , is a deadly poisonous basidiomycete fungus , one of many in the genus Amanita . (amanitaresearch.com)
In 1821, Elias Magnus Fries described it as Agaricus phalloides , but included all white amanitas within its description. (amanitaresearch.com)
[4] Finally in 1833, Johann Heinrich Friedrich Link settled on the name Amanita phalloides , [5] after Persoon had named it Amanita viridis 30 years earlier. (amanitaresearch.com)
Amanita phalloides is the type species of Amanita section Phalloideae, a group that contains all of the deadly poisonous Amanita species thus far identified. (amanitaresearch.com)
[16] The true Amanita verna fruits in spring and turns yellow with KOH solution, whereas A. phalloides never does. (amanitaresearch.com)
Unfortunately while there are some edible mushrooms in the mix, there are also some poisonous species, including the deadly toxic Amanita phalloides or deathcap. (ourplants.org)
Amanita phalloides grows only with oaks, chestnut & hazelnut in Oz. Caps are generally greenish yellow, shiny, 3-10 cm wide. (ourplants.org)
Species3
It is considered slightly poisonous and, more importantly, can easily be confused with much more poisonous species such as the Panther cap ( Amanita pantherina ) . (amanitaresearch.com)
Most notable of these are the species known as destroying angels , namely Amanita virosa and Amanita bisporigera , as well as the fool's mushroom ( A. verna ) . (amanitaresearch.com)
These species represent three rare independent evolutionary events resulting in truffle-like basidiomes arising from agaricoid (typical mushroom forms) species in three different sections in two subgenera. (ourplants.org)
Tulloss2
We have settled on Amanita populiphila as our trial taxon after a very productive meeting in Falmouth, Massachusetts, yesterday including Nathan Wilson, David Tulloss, and RET. (amanitaceae.com)
It belongs in the subgenus Lepidella. (wikipedia.org)
Nomenclatural1
The editors of this site owe a great debt to Dr. Cornelis Bas whose famous cigar box files of Amanita nomenclatural information gathered over three or more decades were made available to RET for computerization and make up the lion's share of the nomenclatural information presented on this site. (amanitaceae.org)
Cornelis Bas1
Amanita smithiana was described by Dutch mycologist Cornelis Bas in 1969. (wikipedia.org)
Description1
The information provided below is derived from the original description of Amanita xerocybe and from the revision of Simmons, Henkel, and Bas ( 2002 ). (amanitaceae.org)
Site2
Looks like we never brought Amanita allostraminea over from the old site. (amanitaceae.com)
Material included here was originally merged with Amanita sp-NW04 on this site. (amanitaceae.org)
Amanitina2
Jabeen S, Kiran M, Khan J, Ahmad I, Ahmad H, Sher H, Khalid AN (2019) Amanita ahmadii , a new species of Amanita subgenus Amanitina section Validae from Pakistan. (pensoft.net)
Clarification of the type locality of Amanita peltigera (Agraicales, Amanitaceae), phylogenetic placement within subgenus Amanitina, and an expanded description. (edu.au)
Genus1
It is worth being able to recognize it, as, after the Amanita caesarea (choice edible, even when raw), it is the second species of the Genus worthy of being eaten. (monaconatureencyclopedia.com)
Amanitaceae1
Concise amended characterizations have been provided for the monophyletic family Amanitaceae and its two monophyletic genera, Amanita and Limacella Earle. (pensoft.net)
Pantherina1
Unlike many of its relatives (for example, the Amanita pantherina ), the remnants of the universal veil do not usually persist on the cap, being easily washed away by rain. (amanitaresearch.com)
Taxa1
Amanita comprises all and only those taxa of A. subgenus Amanita that during development have the future basidiome placed eccentrically upward in the primordium. (amanitaceae.org)
Amanita smithiana was described by Dutch mycologist Cornelis Bas in 1969. (wikipedia.org)
Section2
Amanita peltigera falls within the recently recognised section Arenariae. (edu.au)
In this Section are found Amanitas with persistently white flesh and others with more or less reddening flesh, most of them are edible, after cooking, as they contain thermolabile toxic substances, between which the hemolysins, which are eliminated with temperatures of 70-80 °C.
