“…fuligineoides with a grayish brown to fuliginous umber pileus, persistent apical to subapical partial veil, and a subclavate to napiform blub with a firm limbate universal veil are characteristic of this species. Amanita fuligineoides was originally described from forests dominated by Fagaceae in China at elevations of 900–1,200 m. [ 12 ]. The Thai collections were found in a mixed Dipterocarpaceae-Fagaceae forest at elevations of 510–950 m, and agree with salient features reported in the protologue, especially with respect to the rather large basidiomata and the presence of globose to subglobose spores.…”

Study of three interesting Amanita species from Thailand: Morphology, multiple-gene phylogeny and toxin analysis

et al. 2017

Amanita ballerina and A. brunneitoxicaria spp. nov. are introduced from Thailand. Amanita fuligineoides is also reported for the first time from Thailand, increasing the known distribution of this taxon. Together, those findings support our view that many taxa are yet to be discovered in the region. While both morphological characters and a multiple-gene phylogeny clearly place A. brunneitoxicaria and A. fuligineoides in sect. Phalloideae (Fr.) Quél., the placement of A. ballerina is problematic. On the one hand, the morphology of A. ballerina shows clear affinities with stirps Limbatula of sect. Lepidella. On the other hand, in a multiple-gene phylogeny including taxa of all sections in subg. Lepidella, A. ballerina and two other species, including A. zangii, form a well-supported clade sister to the Phalloideae sensu Bas 1969, which include the lethal “death caps” and “destroying angels”. Together, the A. ballerina-A. zangii clade and the Phalloideae sensu Bas 1969 also form a well-supported clade. We therefore screened for two of the most notorious toxins by HPLC-MS analysis of methanolic extracts from the basidiomata. Interestingly, neither α-amanitin nor phalloidin was found in A. ballerina, whereas Amanita fuligineoides was confirmed to contain both α-amanitin and phalloidin, and A. brunneitoxicaria contained only α-amanitin. Together with unique morphological characteristics, the position in the phylogeny indicates that A. ballerina is either an important link in the evolution of the deadly Amanita sect. Phalloideae species, or a member of a new section also including A. zangii.

A new species and four new records of Amanita (Amanitaceae; Basidiomycota) from Northern Thailand

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Mushrooms belonging to the genus Amanita were collected during a fungal biodiversity study in northern Thailand in 2012-2014. Morphological characteristics and molecular phylogenetic analyses were used to identify the mushrooms to species. Amanita castanea is described as new to science and compared with phenetically and phylogenetically similar species. It is assignable to Amanita stirps Citrina within Amanita series Mappae. Four other species, A. concentrica, A. rimosa, A. cf. rubromarginata and A. zangii are first reports for Thailand; detailed morphological and molecular data are provided for the Thai material.

“…Studies on Amanita have focused much attention on toxin-producing species (Hawkeswood, 2006 1982; Cai et al, 2014;Zhang et al, 2010Zhang et al, , 2015. There are about 58 endemic taxa in sub-Saharan Africa (Tulloss and Possiel, 2017).…”

Burkina Faso has abundant wild mushrooms, but very few inventories have been carried out to record these species. The shortage of taxonomic studies in Burkina Faso on wild mushroom species limits their knowledge. Three species of the genus Amanita from Burkina Faso are reported and fully described in this paper. They are Amanita pulverulenta Beeli, Amanita citrina (Schaeffer) Persoon and Amanita odorata Beeli. All the three species were collected in the classified forest of Niangoloko, preciously in the mosaic gallery forests dominated by Berlinia grandiflora (Vahl) Hutch. & Dalziel and Isoberlinia doka Craib & Stapf (Caesalpiniaceae) and are assumed to be ectomycorrhizal.
