cap	The cap of A. huijsmanii is 45 - 60 mm wide, subcampanulate at first, then convex, with a distinct broad umbo in some specimens, dry, with a strongly striate margin (25^±% of the radius); the cap is metallic gray, occasionally slightly darker in the disc. The volva is usually absent.
gills	The gills are free, not too close, white with a flesh-cream tone in mass in mature specimens, and rounded at the cap margin. The short gills are truncate at a right angle or at a slight slant.
stem	The stem is 55 - 120 × 7 - 10 mm, white, narrowing slightly and evenly upward, ornamented with fine white fibrils, and exannulate. The flesh is white and hollow. The volva is membranous, white, and often completely lacking an internal limb.
spores	The spores measure (8.5-) 10.1 - 12.8 (-15.0) × (6.5-) 7.0 - 9.8 (-10.9) µm and are inamyloid and broadly ellipsoid to ellipsoid (infrequently subglobose, infrequently elongate, rarely cylindric). Clamps are rare or absent at bases of the basidia.
discussion	Amanita huijsmanii was originally described from France. It is known from Europe—at least from Portugal to Croatia and north to Germany. For comparison, see A. argentea Huijsman, A. mairei Foley, and A. supravolvata Lanne.—R. E. Tulloss

The editors of this site owe a great debt to Dr. Cornelis Bas whose famous cigar box files of Amanita nomenclatural information gathered over three or more decades were made available to RET for computerization and make up the lion's share of the nomenclatural information presented on this site.

intro

The following text may make multiple use of each data field.

The field may contain magenta text representing a type study by Tulloss.

The same field may also contain black text, which will represent a revision of the species by Tulloss. Paragraphs of black text will be labeled if further subdivision of this text is appropriate.

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 the cited literature, molecular study of Der. Linas V. Kudzma, and other original research by R. E. Tulloss.

Spore data for collections
provisionally identified as: Amanita huijsmanii F. Massart & Rouzeau

Spore data sets and their composite

Each spore data set is intended to comprise a set of measurements from a single specimen made by a single observer; and explanations prepared for this site talk about specimen-observer pairs associated with each data set. Combining more data into a single data set is non-optimal because it obscures observer differences (which may be valuable for instructional purposes, for example) and may obscure instances in which a single collection inadvertently contains a mixture of taxa.
