Hi Matthew! You should try this site to id Amanitas: http://pluto.njcc.com/~ret/amanita/maina...
The site is dedicated to a Dutch mycologist, Cees Bas. He was one of the leaders in the Amanita studies of the last decades. A great, sympathatic man, who truely lives for Amanitas!
Based on the looks of the specimen shown, you should probably check the section Lepidella.

You're finding a lot of cool Amanitas. The folks at MushroomObserver.org can identify them. I can't.
