| 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 is based on original research of R. E. Tulloss. |
| pileus |
51 - 128 mm wide, whitish to cream to pale tan at first, bruising or staining pinkish to pale red-brown to pale brown to red-brown, sometimes appearing radially fibrillose, subovoid at first, then convex to planoconvex, sometimes depressed in disc, tacky, subshiny to shiny when dry; context white, bruising brick red to wine-brown, 4 - 9.5 mm thick over stipe, thinning evenly to margin; margin nonstriate or very short-striate to pronouncedly striate in age, nonappendiculate, decurved; universal veil yellow to cream at first, staining/bruising beige to red-brown, with tips often darkening first, detersile at first, at times becoming adnate, subpyramidal, verruculose, with irregularly polygonal base. |
| lamellae |
free to narrowly adnate with decurrent tooth and descending line on upper stipe, subcrowded to crowded, white to pale cream to faintly sordid cream in mass, white to whitish to very pale cream in side view, bruising as in pileus context, up to 5.5 - 10 mm broad, of constant breadth for most of length, sometimes forking, sometimes anastomosing; lamellulae subtruncate to rounded truncate to subattenuate to attenuate to attenuate in steps, ??. |
| stipe |
35 - 65 × 8 - 16 mm, white at first, becoming almost entirely reddish brown to wine-brown to brownish, narrowing upward (rarely narrowest at mid-stipe), flaring at apex, finely pulverulent above, finely longitudinally striatulate; bulb up to 26 - 38 × 16 - 27 mm, broadly fusiform; context stuffed, white, staining brick-red to wine-red, with firm white stuffing material extending into upper third of bulb, with central cylinder ca. 4 mm wide, with larval tunnels concolorous with other bruised/stained parts of context; partial veil subapical to superior, membranous, skirt-like, eventually collapsing on stipe, striate above, floccose-fibrillose below, white to pale sulfur yellow to sulfur yellow above and white to sulfur yellow to more intensely yellow below, staining as in remainder of basidiome; universal veil often not evident at stipe base. |

| discussion |
Despite the sometimes white or very pallid pileus,
this species often can be segregated in the field
from the material determined on this site as
A.
rubescens var. alba. The
present species often has a yellow partial
veil. The yellow universal veil material
(illustrated on this page as it appears on the
underside of the partial veil) and the pale sulfur
yellow to sulfur yellow upper surface of the partial
veil is not seen in A. rubescens var.
alba.
In the following figure, sporographs for the
present species and A. rubescens var.
alba are compared:
The presently known range of this taxon extends
from Connecticut to South Carolina in the eastern
U.S. and, thence, westward to Indiana and
Missouri.
At the moment, this taxon is segregated solely by
its nrITS and nrLSU sequences. In eastern
North America, compare A. flavorubens,
A.
rubescens var. alba,
Amanita
submaculata, A. sp-amerirubescens04,
A.
sp-amerirubescens 02, and A. sp-N47.
The taxa with temporary code names of the form
"sp-amerirubescnes0X" (where "X" is an integer) were
originally treated on this site as a single taxon
"Amanita
amerirubescens." The latter taxon
page is maintained on the site and references
collections still not divided among the temporary
code names.
The present species formerly bore the temporary code
"A. sp-amerirubescens01." |
