amanita pantherina???

Is this what I think it is?? I found it under an oak tree along the side of the road next to a cow pasture. Sorry about the pics, new camera. It has warts on the cap and looks like the amanita pantherina's on erowids mushroom gallery. If it cant be identified like this i still have it but it is dried out and i will be willing to send it to someone (with a reputable reputation) to further id it. I also did not take a spore print but i inverted it so it couldnt drop its spores if that is possible.

One of the main features you need to see to identify an Amanita is the base of the stem. Hopefully you dug up the base of the stem so you got it all. Try posting a photo of the stem and especially the base of the stem, as seen from the side.

Looks like an Inocybe species. However, were the gills white?
And why in the hell is that enlargement only one inch in size?

here is a sorry pic - like i said it was a new camera i had hoped these would have came out better so i didnt take anymore. the ring around the stem was caused from severe handling- it was all white - gills and stem and as for that enlargement in the other photo when i downloaded the pic from the damn camera it was 588 kb's and i was only alowed 400 so i had to make it smaller and i dont know what went wrong after that(computer illiterate dumbass)lol sorry

Maybe a Lepiota. It is not Amanita pantherina. The stem is not the right color and is awful thin for pantherina.
mj Check Erowid.org o for a nicve Amanita pantherina foto.

this mushroom was treated very bad due to circumstances beyond my control(my ride left me for 6 hours lol-and then it was left in a hot car for another 2-3 hours. when i found this the first thing i noticed was the warts on top of the cap,thought it was dirt or debri at first until i tried to brush it off then i thought to myself "this resembles an amanita".so as soon as i got home i went str8 to "erowids vaults" and from what i see its an "amanita pantherina" but im no expert but here is one of the pics that i think it looks very much alike. what other mushies have these warts on the cap? also the stem was white and quite thick especially around the base of the stem and it had what resembled warts on the very bottom of the stem "bulb shaped " i guess at the very bottom of the stem i have no idea what this damn thing is but i have done alot of studying and thats what i thought it was when i first saw it.

i'm going to stress: A. pantherina does not grow in North America. you will not find it. what you might find is any one of several similar species. these species, like a great many in the genus bear such close resemblance thant they will fool many experienced mushroom hunters and even profesional muycologists [the reason A. pantherina was ever thought to grow here in the first place]. i hope you will do yourself a favor and start with safer genera.

Hi Concrete Feet, I was just on the phone with Hildegard who is with the Puget OSound Mycological Society and yes we do have Amanita pantherina her eint he PNW with at least two variations of it.
mj
If you need to talk to her about it, her number is int he phone book under the heading of Puget SOound Mycological Society and listen to a recording and press 3, after the recording is over for her number.
This is a public service number so it is listed int he phone books here in Seattle.

MJ: while i don't explicitly disbelieve you on this one, post supporting data, not arguments.

A pantherina does grow in the the US I have seen it and many people have picked it. The claim that it does not grow here is based of nit picky/arbitrary classification stystems.
If a mushroom is identical in all respects to another muchroom except maybe the spore size is larger that does not make it a fundamentaly different species.
It doesn't matter if the brown, white warrted mushroom that grow in America conforms exactly to the ones in another country, at most you just have different varities.
