Agaricus campestris

Agaricus campestris is a widely eaten gilled mushroom closely related to the cultivated A. bisporus (button mushroom).

See Amanita verna and Agaricus campestris

Amanita

The genus Amanita contains about 600 species of agarics, including some of the most toxic known mushrooms found worldwide, as well as some well-regarded edible species (and many species of unknown edibility). Amanita verna and Amanita are Hepatotoxins.

See Amanita verna and Amanita

Amanita phalloides

Amanita phalloides, commonly known as the death cap, is a deadly poisonous basidiomycete fungus, one of many in the genus Amanita. Amanita verna and Amanita phalloides are Amanita, deadly fungi and Hepatotoxins.

Amanita virosa

Amanita virosa is a species of fungus in the class Agaricomycetes. Amanita verna and Amanita virosa are Amanita, deadly fungi, Hepatotoxins and poisonous fungi.

Amanitin

Amanitin may refer to several related amatoxins.

Annulus (mycology)

An annulus is the ring-like or collar-like structure sometimes found on the stipe of some species of mushrooms.

Basidiomycota

Basidiomycota is one of two large divisions that, together with the Ascomycota, constitute the subkingdom Dikarya (often referred to as the "higher fungi") within the kingdom Fungi.

See Amanita verna and Basidiomycota

Destroying angel

The name destroying angel applies to several similar, closely related species of deadly all-white mushrooms in the genus Amanita. Amanita verna and destroying angel are Amanita, deadly fungi, Hepatotoxins and poisonous fungi.

Form (botany)

In botanical nomenclature, a form (forma, plural formae) is one of the "secondary" taxonomic ranks, below that of variety, which in turn is below that of species; it is an infraspecific taxon.

See Amanita verna and Form (botany)

Fungus

A fungus (fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms.

Α-Amanitin

α-Amanitin (alpha-Amanitin) is a cyclic peptide of eight amino acids. Amanita verna and Α-Amanitin are Hepatotoxins.

Lamella (mycology)

In mycology, a lamella (lamellae), or gill, is a papery hymenophore rib under the cap of some mushroom species, most often agarics.

List of deadly fungus species

Although many people have a fear of mushroom poisoning by "toadstools", only a small number of the many macroscopic fruiting bodies commonly known as mushrooms and toadstools have proven fatal to humans. Amanita verna and List of deadly fungus species are deadly fungi.

North America

North America is a continent in the Northern and Western Hemispheres.

Phallotoxin

The phallotoxins consist of at least seven compounds, all of which are bicyclic heptapeptides (seven amino acids), isolated from the death cap mushroom (Amanita phalloides).

See Amanita verna and Phallotoxin

Pileus (mycology)

The pileus is the technical name for the cap, or cap-like part, of a basidiocarp or ascocarp (fungal fruiting body) that supports a spore-bearing surface, the hymenium.
