Half-dyed slender caesar

Amanita hemibapha

A species of Amanita mushrooms.

The half-dyed slender caesar, with its vivid, slender cap, presents an appealing sight on the forest floor, frequently found near both coniferous and broadleaf trees. However, its striking appearance also contributes to a significant risk of misidentification with the highly poisonous East Asian death cap, a closely resembling species.
