panther cap

amanita pantherina

Notes:

it doesn't comes out of an eeg (no amanita) then it must be a lepiota, but again the colors, confuse me (maybe to late). could it be lepiota felina ??? i thought at an amanita pantera bleached without eeg

I see many people having trouble keeping A. pantherina and A. rubescens apart. This pictures are again A. rubescens, see lack of stripes on the capmargine, color of the stipe, lack of ringed volva at the base.
Maybe this site will help: http://pluto.njcc.com/~ret/amanita/maina....
Here you can also see that A. pantherina is classified in the group together with A. muscaria, namely section Amanita. and A. rubescens is put in section Validae.

It's definitely an Amanita. The volva varies in shape, both depending on species and situation (mushrooms are nothing if not variable). Not knowing the German mushrooms, I'd hesitate to give a species; it could be some variant on Amanita gemmata.

No, not sure. But LarsKorb posted a similar photo yesterday which he identified as Panther Cap so may be worth comparing?
