Amanita farinacea

Amanita farinacea
Amanita farinacea
The Cap of Amanita farinacea is  up to 60 mm in diameter, broadly convex and white. It is and initially covered with mealy white veil fragments  that remain in ragged fringes hanging from the margins.

These gradually fall off in the form of flour-like granules that litter the ground below leaving the cap smooth and silky.
