Amanita ochrophylla
A stout mushroom with a cream-coloured convex cap and flaky patches of universal veil. Some of the cap seems to have been nibbled away. The stem had a very bulbous base. A partial veil was still intact, except for a small tear which exposed close white gills (pic 3).
Spotted at the base of a eucalyptus tree in a nature reserve.
Order: Agaricales Family: Amanitaceae
