Amanita vittadinii
Amanita vittadinii, commonly known as the Vittadini's Lepidella, is a European saprophyte mushroom of the Amanita genus. It is believed that it is also one of the most ancient ones.[2] This species is known to occur without accompanying woody plant symbionts.[3] It is a somewhat unique hybrid-like Macrolepiota and Armillaria, which is characterized by white discoloration around the fruit body and its overall look flaky.[4]
