Amanita jacksonii
    #26897695 - 08/24/20 07:03 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

I recently started foraging for wild edibles and MAN I wish I'd done this sooner! Such a fun way to get to know your local ecosystem more intimately, while adding an element of treasure hunting to nature hikes  :happypirate:



This was my first time spotting an Amanita jacksonii in the wild. What a cool, beautiful organism. I am fascinated/confused by the prominent hollowed-out ring at the base of its stem - is there an evolutionary reason for its ringed-stem? Does it have a special name? Is this trait shared among other species?

I believe it's called a cup or volva, its the remnants of a universal veil.
All amanitas have them, other mushrooms like P. Cubensis have an annulus which is the remnants of a partial veil.

Nice find and great photo!

Sweet, a quick search for "volva" did the trick. Now it's time to fall down this Wikipedia rabbit hole :wink: Thanks Stu!
