Help with amanita identification
    #18816122 - 09/08/13 05:53 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

Habitat:
I found this poor fellow half mangled directly under the low lying branches of a pine tree. I live in Massachusetts. While I've become pretty aware of the dangerous amanita species in this area (thanks to lurking on this forum), better safe then sorry.

Gills:
white gills, closely packed together- spore print commencing

Stem:
mostly white/slight pinkish tone(s) stem 11 cm long to gills- 2 cm wide at widest point

Cap:
Cap damaged on one side- 14 cm wide- yellow/gold brown hues- white/beige "warts"

Spore print in progress

Bruising:
None noticeable

Other information:
From what I learned here so far, the closest dangerous look alike would be amanita pantherina, but I've read mixed information as to whether this is a species restricted to outside North America. Suffice it to say I will do tons of my own research before asking you guys for an ID. Since I may consume this if it is indeed amanita muscaria var formosa, I figured I'd better get an expert opinion(s).




Sorry for the quality guys. I have indeed read the section(s) on how to take a quality ID photo. Unfortunately, my digital camera was not at hand when I found this guy. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Rad handle WhoManBeing and cool form line. Who is that?

I agree with pantherina but I know almost nothing about this genus.
