“…Morphologic features of the samples were almost fully in accordance with the description of A. muscaria and A. pantherina in Refs. [20,21]. The color of caps of the mushrooms sold as A. muscaria tended to be yellowish in comparison with the references, but we presumed that this was caused by fading during drying.…”

“…A. muscaria var. muscaria probably corresponds to clade II, with distribution from Eurasia to Alaska and the Pacifi c Northeastern region of the United States; in temperate, boreal and coastal forests with various species of conifers and deciduous trees, relatively common in Europe (Beardslee 1905;Jenkins & Petersen 1976;Breitenbach & Kränzlin 1995;Mattock 1995, Castro 1996Vaasma 2009). For other parts of the world, this taxon certainly corresponds to material collected from exotic plantations, growing under Pinus and other tree species (e.g., Quercus, Picea and Pseudoptsuga) imported from Europe to Tanzania (Härkönen et al 1994, Tulloss personal communication), Australia (Reid 1979;Grgurinovic 1997, Wood 1997Hawkeswood 2006;Robinson 2010), South Africa (Pearson 1950;Reid & Eicker 1991) and New Zealand (Stevenson 1962;Ridley 1991).…”

Taxonomic studies of Amanita muscaria (L.) Lam (Amanitaceae, Agaricomycetes) and its infraspecific taxa in Brazil

We analyzed specimens identifi ed as Amanita muscaria, some recently collected and others already deposited in herbaria, in Brazil. We concluded that two subspecies of A. muscaria occur in Brazil: A. muscaria var. muscaria; and A. muscaria var. fl avivolvata. Th e fi rst taxon was found in association with Castanea sativa, and the second (one specimen only) was found in association with Pinus and Eucalyptus spp. Morphologically, A. muscaria var. fl avivolvata is distinguished by a shallower subhymenium and by basidiospores that are more elongated than are those of A. muscaria var. muscaria, which is the more widely known subspecies. We present descriptions, discussions, illustrations and a dichotomous key for these two subspecies. Acta Botanica Brasilica 27(1): 31-39. 2013.

“…Commentary: A. muscaria was described from Europe and represents the type species of Amanita (Gilbert, 1940;Gilbert, 1941;Jenkins and Petersen, 1976;Galli, 2001;Neville and Poumarat, 2004;Yang, 2005;Yang, 2015;Cui et al, 2018). Yang and Oberwinkler (1999) conducted a detailed study on A. muscaria basidiomal development and anatomy.…”

Globally, the species of Amanita are key components of ectomycorrhizal ecosystems. Some of them are widely known as poisonous or edible fungi. Although many new Amanita species from China have been described, the species diversity of Yanshan Mountains remains unknown. We here describe three new species, namely, A. borealis sp. nov. (Sect. Amanita), A. brunneola sp. nov. (Sect. Caesareae), and A. yanshanensis sp. nov. (Sect. Validae), based on morphological observations and molecular phylogenetic analyses. In addition, nine known species, namely, A. caesareoides (Sect. Caesareae), A. chiui (Sect. Vaginatae), A. muscaria (Sect. Amanita), A. oberwinklerana (Sect. Roanokenses), A. ovalispora (Sect. Vaginatae), A. subglobosa (Sect. Amanita), A. subjunquillea (Sect. phalloideae), A. vaginata var. vaginata (Sect. Vaginatae), and A. virosa (Sect. phalloideae), were reported from Yanshan Mountains for the first time. Our results emphasize that China has a high diversity of Amanita species and that additional studies are required to understand the exact species number. These findings play a crucial role in Amanita toxin research and ecological conservation. This study investigated the areas where Amanita species-related research is lacking. The study also attempted to better understand Amanita distribution and thus contribute to related research. This study enriches the species diversity of Amanita in Yanshan Mountains and offers additional data supporting the macrofungal systematics, toxin research, and diversity and ecological studies of Amanita in future studies.
