Amanita farinosa
Two recent molecular studies show that A. farinosa is part of a subgroup within Amanita with its close relatives A. muscaria, A. gemmata and A. roseotincta.[4][5] The cap is 2.5–7 centimetres (1–3 inches) in diameter, domed in young and flat in older specimens, with a striate margin.The stem, or the stipe, lacks a ring and at its base a smallish bulb or volva.The spores are smooth and round to broadly elliptical.An uncommon mushroom, it is found across North America in late summer to late autumn in coniferous or deciduous woodlands.
