[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
“Amanita flavoconia” is the name of this mushroom at least I think it is? I stand to be corrected. Some basic information includes:
Habitat is in mixed woods. They are Very common and are found in most of eastern North America. Season July-October. Edibility uncertain - best avoided. Comment Most likely to be confused with the much rarer Amanita frostiana, which differs in its striate cap margin, nonamyloid, globose spores, and often marginate basal bulb of stem.
This photograph was level adjusted, cropped, and save for the web.
