Amanita orientigemmata, is a species of agaric fungus in the family Amanitaceae native to northeastern, northwestern and southern China, India and Japan, first described by Zhu L. Yang & Yoshimichi Doi in 1999.[1]
Description[edit]
It is characterized by its yellowish to yellow pileus with white or dirty-white volval remnants that are felted to patchy, sometimes pyramidal. Its annulus is fragile and fugacious; sometimes volval remnants remain on the stipe base. Basidiospores are broadly ellipsoid, clamps exist as well.[1] It has been involved in at least one non-lethal case of psycho-neurological poisoning in China.[2]
