Dear Dimitar, This could be interesting... Amanita silvicola is exannulate. Would you say that the volval remnants at the top of the bulb are warts or weakly...

The only things that might match in the current Pacific Coastal states key are A. silvicola and A. baccata sensu Arora. However, BOTH of these taxa are...

Rod and Dimitar, This is a interesting coincidence as besides Dimitar's find and the small group that appeared at the MSSF Fungus Fair last night, I also found...
This "lepidella" is an odd bird indeed. After Rod has told us that cokeri simply doesn't occur out here, I was all set for skepticism when I cruised the FF ...
Dear Rod, let's keep things simple -- I will send you the one dried sporocarp that I have -- the annulus is still solidly in place. I will try to scrounge the...
Thank you Debbie, our record is still pretty dismal as we could responsibly name only around 1/3 or less of the Cort collections. I have promised next year to...
Amanita folks: Sivicola is NOT exannulate (implying that it NEVER has an annulus); it has an evanescent (easily lost) annulus. Photo of silvicola WITH annulus...
Debbie, looking through the Oregon collections (October 12/13 -- yours looks line one them) -- I documented a couple of these with hi-res photos, especially...
Dear Debbie et al. I guess we could say that their is material that is more or less flocculent in the annular zone. This may be in a compressed form on the ...

Dear Ron et al., I am in agreement with you and Debbie concerning your photos' relationship to the possibly novel lepidella. Amanita seems to me to require a...

Dear Dimitar, I see you have Neville and Poumarat's big book(?). Be careful, I think the ruddy stain that they record may be evidence of an "infection" of the...

Be careful what you promise! Now I suppose if one were VERY selective in what they collected (only picking large distinctive ones for which you had the full...

Hi Scott, thank you for the points -- I agree with them in general and would like to articulate my viewpoint: n The number of 2/3 that I mentioned...
Sorry. Seems you must copy/paste the first, the the second line. Why? That's slightly beyond my understanding of the internet. Sorry again. -Mike ... ...

Good that you found out. Could have been worse though... Think I have heard of spotted fever in California before... I don't recall where- Or why. -Mike Hugh...
In Oregon it can fruit in areas with Douglas fir and Oregon White Oak mixed (not sure which it is associated with) and also don't know what it is associated...
Hi all, Today it warmed up a bit, so I went back to my Queen Boletus spot and searched around the area. I didn't see any at first, but did notice many...
