Old Oak Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 I took this one through the key on mushroomexpert, and came up with A. multisquamosa. I hadn’t seen them with the brown top before though, so I was a bit confused. White spore print. Also….hi everyone! Sorry I’ve been away so long!

Jeff Falcone Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 http://www.amanitaceae.org/?Amanita+multisquamosa Your Id seems like a very good proposal to me. The photos on amaniticae.org have a much more pronounced brown circle on the cap and they say that the brown circle on the cap is characteristic of the species. Your mushroom definitely has volva and anulus that match the description of A. multisquamosa. That funnel shaped anulus is very distinctive and the other species listed on amaniticae.org that have a similar anulus don't fit this specimen. I think you nailed it.

Old Oak Posted July 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Thanks! I’ve found them in the same forest before, but they’ve been much paler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Falcone Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Amanitaceae.org is an amazing resource for all things Amanita that will definitely have the most current information on this constantly evolving genus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 One of A. multisquamosa, A. velatipes, or A. subvelatipes. Each of these types features the marginate basal volva and the inverted funnel annulus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
