Identify, australian mushrooms.
    #9818132 -

Found in rainforest type area, next to a dam. I found each of them in different areas and by themselves.





Spore print coming soon.

Looks like Amanita phalloides.

I've seen these bastards in fields where cubes grow. They almost look the same from a distance until you see under the cap! :mad2:

Take a closer look at the base of the stem, its not in that section.

These won't be growing out in the field with cubes unless there are trees nearby.

This is an interesting species, its one of the rubescent (red staining) Amanitas.

Its from section Validae: (maybe you can find it in this list)

http://pluto.njcc.com/~ret/amanita/sectvali.html

Its similar to A. rubescens but it has a much larger bulb at the base of the stem.

You should email these pics to Rod Tulloss and see what he says about them.

I am red/green colorblind. No kidding, given the right (bad) lighting and hue of color, I can't tell green from brown from red, etc.
Apart from that I know that Australia has quite a lot of different fungi than we have here. That's why I said "looks like". I will always be careful to give a 100% ID on any mushroom that I don't personally come across on my hikes and hunts. Seeing them in a book is one thing, actually seeing, smelling and feeling a couple of specimen for real is something else entirely for me.

It has nothing to do with the color, it does not look like A. phalloides because of the shape of the base of the stem.

Compare these with those.

So section Validae would not have a rim or volval remnants encasing the base? I don't understand that stuff much yet.

I said Validae because I think all the rubescent taxa are there.  Also the base of the stem does not have a sack or a cup, just a big bump.  If you look at the other species in Validae, they either lack a bump at the base of the stem or they have one, but it isn't a cup / sack type volva. 

Its kind of hard to understand, but if you go to this page and scroll down you can see the descriptions of all the sections.  Flip through a bunch of the species in Validae and Phalloideae and you'll see what I mean.

I asked Debbie Veiss about it and she said  "curious. I could use a better base shot...doesn't look membranous from my perspective, altho it is bulbous.

definitely not phalloides. tree associates? reddening? could be a member of the validae, like novinupta and rubescens...certainly wouldn't eat it! did they try the Australian mushroom sites? I'd ask Rod, but he is currently out of the loop and at a family funeral, not in a good place, mentally.

more photos!, esp. full on sharp side views. cut it in half and take a photo, too. observe for possible reddening. also it looks to have an appendiculate margin to the cap...perhaps it's the missing link!

oh yeah, and if the guy/gal has meltzers, check to see if the spores are amyloid or not...just putting a drop on a spore print on a glass slide is sufficient; no scope necessary.

I'd like to hear what this turns out to be...or be glad to opine further with more data.

No description or photo that I can find, but this name on Rod's site is intriguing, and a possible fit to that bulbous-based amanita maybe section validae:

Amanita austrobulbosa, supposedly a "work in progress"

(again, the appendiculate margin is NOT a fit for that section, but heck, some of the the mammals down there lay eggs!)."

Another name for you.. Amanita ochrophylla? - It's the common large-bulbed Amanita you get in damp forests here. Pinkish tones are often present.

P.S. those two mushrooms look slightly different, one more bulbous, one with more red, one with more farinaceous veil remnants.. maybe you have two different types?

Bigger and bolder and rougher and tougher in other words sucka there is no other...
