name Amanita sp-NFL03
name status cryptonomen temporarium
author Tulloss
cap The cap is grayish brown at first, dark brown at maturity, with striations extending 25-40% of the cap's radius.
gills The gills are marginate.
stem The stem is decorated with black fibrils.
spores The spores measure (11.9-) 13.1 - 15.5 (-18.4) × (11.2-) 11.8 - 13.8 (-17.5) µm and are subglobose to broadly ellipsoid and inamyloid. Clamp information t.b.d.
discussion Note: It is not known whether the spore measurements of the material seen to date (which had rather common bisterigmate basidia and was in distressed condition when the spores were measured fresh) is typical of this species.  It is quite possible that the measurements are atypical.—R. E. Tulloss
