an only recently adopted and then quickly discarded misnomer for the fall coccora, drawn from an old description of an aberrant green form (or color-blind describer?) of the calyptroderma, described by a long-dead Dr. Lane from Oregon.
In fact, this pale form isn’t calyptroderma, either, but we are apparently stuck with “calyptroderma” until this species, newly separated-out-from-the-fall-coccora (the real Amanita calyptroderma, which this pale, spring amanita greatly resembles in all but color and genetics and taste) gets its own publication and its own, new name.
And ain’t that a mouthful, fellow amanita eaters??! ;)
