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 presenting data from a type study
and/or revision of other original material cited in the protolog of the present taxon.
Macroscopic descriptions in magenta are a combination of data from the protolog and
additional observations made on the exiccata during revision of the cited original
material.
The same field may also contain black text, which is data from a revision of the present
taxon (including non-type material and/or material not cited in the protolog).
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 material not directly from the protolog of the present taxon and not cited as the work of Dr. Z. L. Yang or another researcher is based upon
original research by R. E. Tulloss.
NOTE: Spore measurements from papers by Z. L. Yang use his "Times New Roman" face for "Q"
and "Q'"—respectively, "Q" and
"Q." |

from material of India, Nepal, and Thailand (RET): [105/5/4] (5.0-) 6.5 - 9.0 (-10.0) × (3.8-) 4.5 - 6.5 - (-7.2) μm, (L = 7.4 - 8.1 μm; L' = 7.6 μm; W = 5.2 - 5.6 μm; W' = 5.4 μm; Q = (1.19-) 1.22 - 1.63 (-1.80); Q = 1.33 - 1.51; Q' = 1.40), hyaline, colorless to yellowish, smooth, thin-walled, amyloid to strongly amyloid, often adaxially flattened, sometimes swollen at one end; apiculus sublateral, cylindric; contents mono- to multiguttulate, with additional small granules.
[NOTE: The extension of spore measurements into a smaller size range in the data of RET, is (at least in part) due to the fact that some of the material he revised was poorly dried and/or poorly preserved.—ed.] |
