Amanita viscidolutea is a species of agaric fungus in the family Amanitaceae native to Brazil.
Taxonomy
[edit]The species was first described by Menolli, Capelari & Baseia in 2009.[1]
Description
[edit]Amanita viscidolutea has a yellow pileus of 4–6 centimetres (1+1⁄2–2+1⁄2 inches) in diameter, plane to depressed, with distinct striate white margin and yellowish-white patches of universal veil at center. Lamellae are free, yellowish-white, truncate to rounded-truncate. The stipe is 8–12 cm (3–4+1⁄2 in) tall and about 38 millimetres (1+1⁄2 in) wide, yellowish-white and exannulate, with bulb-shaped remnants of universal veil encircling stipe base. It has a pleasant aroma. Basidiospores are inamyloid.[2]
Distribution and habitat
[edit]Native to Brazil, this species is solitary to subgregarious, and grows in sandy soil. It is associated and thus possibly in mycorrhizal symbiosis with Coccoloba and Guapira species.[1][2]
Conservation
[edit]It is listed as a vulnerable species on IUCN Red List.[1] Given its habitat, it is threatened by deforestation.[1]
