| Common name: Carrot Foot. These collection were found in the month of August in oak/beech woods. Rod Tulloss, Amanita expert, warns: "I have been told on a number of occasions that the stipe's bulb is edible. Considering the poor knowledge of toxins in section Lepidella and the established fact that kidney and/or liver failure is associated with ingestion of species in section Lepidella, I cannot recommend that this species be eaten." |
