Collection location: Gualala, California, USA [Click for map]
Who: debbie viess (amanitarita)
No herbarium specimen

Or…with that two-toned cap, and thick, red-staining volva,
could it really be a pachycolea with a constricted volva?

Darn it, the amanitas are not fitting neatly into their (our) categories, again!!!
