Amanitas






from Wikipedia: The genus Amanita contains about 600 species of agarics including some of the most toxic known mushrooms found worldwide. This genus is responsible for approximately 95% of the fatalities resulting from mushroom poisoning, with the death cap accounting for about 50% on its own.
Amanitas have a cup or vulva at the base of the stem.
