intro

Olive text indicates a specimen that has not been thoroughly examined (for example, for microscopic details) and marks other places in the text where data is missing or uncertain.

The following material is based on original research by R. E. Tulloss.

pileus

?? mm wide, pale yellow (almost citrine), ??; context ??; margin short striate in exsiccata; universal veil as submembranous patches.

stipe

?? × ?? mm, ??; context ??; bulb ??; exannulate; universal veil submembranous, limbate, ??.

odor/taste

not recorded.

macrochemical
tests

none recorded.

lamella trama

bilateral, divergent; ??.

subhymenium

pseudoparenchymatous (cellular); comprising inflated cells in 2 - 4? layers, (e.g., 14.0 - 21 × 11.5 - 15.0 μm), ??.

basidiospores

name	Amanita sp-N08
name status	cryptonomen temporarium
author	Tulloss
intro	This species is known from a dried collection accompanied by a photograph. These were sent to RET by Emily Johnson.
cap	The cap is pale yellow (almost citrine) and has short marginal striations. The volva is present as submembranous patches.
gills	No information about the gills of this mushroom have been developed.
stem	The stem is exannulate and bear a flap of volval tissue on its bulb.
odor/taste	There is no information about the odor of this mushroom.
spores	The spores measure (8.4-) 9.1 - 10.5 (-11.2) × (5.6-) 5.9 - 6.6 (-7.3) μm and are ellipsoid to elongate and inamyloid. Clamps are probably absent from the bases of basidia.
discussion	This gemmatoid mushroom was collected at Presque Isle State Park in Erie County, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. and, apparently, is only known from that location. No ecological information is available. The collection labeled A. sp-N08 is one of those that must be investigated in coming to an understanding of A. russuloides.—R. E. Tulloss
