Its one of my favorite woods I hunt the most.I find alot of different species in that area so its always fun to find a new species.
Charles,
We don’t have a record of Michigan material on the amanitaceae.org page for onusta. If you happen to run across some nice material of this species, we’d love to see the images on MO and would ask that you dry some mature specimens for us.
Very best,
Rod
I think that this is probably Amanita onusta. It used to be very common in a roadcut SW of my home town, but the state wildlife management people cut back the embankment of the road slightly and the mushroom has not yet returned. Sadly, the same is true of several other interesting species. Wildlife Management “manages” about a half-dozen species for hunters. The rest of life in their forests can be replaced by invasive species entirely without danger of any intervention. Again…sadly.

The shot under the cap seems to show that the there is a fluffy area at the top of the stem. Is that the case? Also, there seem to be bits of partial veil remaining on the cap edge and covering the ends of some gills. Ate these patches pieces of a membrane or areas of felt-like or fluffy material? And could you tell us about the approximate width of the cap?
Very best,
Rod
