A. Muscaria var. Formosa?
    #5793545 - 06/26/06 07:11 PM (17 years, 7 months ago)

Hey there everyone! After a day or two of rains, I decided to pick up the ol' P. Caeripules hunt. Although I didn't find any blue foots, I did manage to pick up this interesting mushroom, which looks to me like Amanita Muscaria var. Formosa. Here are the details:

Cap: Yellowish-Orange, 5.5 cm wide
Stem: White/Light Brown, 12 cm long
Gills: almost pure white and very tight together
Spore print: none :frown:
Bruising: nothing that stands out

There looks to be the remnants of a veil on the stem.
Here are some pictures for further detail:

The habitat was a wooded area and the mushroom itself was found in some wet leaves. Any clue as to what it is?

Thanks a bunch guys!

Not A. muscaria. It lacks the the basal bulb and concentric rings of universal veil remnants.

Not even going to try without a spore print. It's certainly not something you should consider eating.
