Observation: Amanita sp. (4308)

When: 2007-10-04
Collection location: Brookings, Curry Co., Oregon, USA [Click for map]
Who: Ron Pastorino (Ronpast)
Herbarium specimen available

Notes: This specimen was found about 50 yards from Observation 4307. It’s cap is a little darker yellow-orange than the previous specimen but appears to retain most of the macroscopic and microscopic characteristics. However, this specimen was growing in a line with 3 other Amanitas that I would call typical west coast Amaniata vaginatas. A photograph is included of one of them. This raises the question of whether these are just some type of color variant.

Summary: Will send vouchers.

Unfortunately my microscope is not set up to make spore measurements. However I’ll send the vouchers and notes of the specimens of both observations.

Summary: Would like to know more about this collection and see specimen.

I’d like to know more about this and the nearby, similar-looking collection. Also, I’d like to know what spore measurements you obtained, etc.
Very best, Rod
