| author | T. Oda, C. Tanaka & Tsuda |
| english name | "Japanese Ringed-Bulb Amanita" |
| intro | The following is based on the original description of Amanita ibotengutake (Oda et al. 2002). |
| cap | The cap is 75-160 mm wide, hemispherical at first, then convex to plane, often eventually with an uplifted margin, brown to dark brown to yellowish or orangish brown, often darkest in the center, and smooth. The striations on the cap margin have lengths up to 30% of the cap's radius. The cap flesh is white and 6-8 mm thick above the stem. The volval remnants on the cap are pallid pyramidal warts or small patches. |
| gills | The gills of this species are free to remote, 9-15 mm broad, white to pale cream, crowded, and have a pruinose free edge. The short gills are truncate to subtruncate in 1-6 ranks. |
| stem | 55 - 160 × 9 - 24 mm, white to yellowish white to pale yellow, narrowing upward, and hollow to stuffed. The stem's basal bulb is 30 - 40 × 14-36 mm and globose or subglobose or broadly ellipsoid or ellipsoid or spindle-shaped. The stem bear a median skirt-like ring that is sometimes torn away during expansion of the mushroom and may remain hanging from the cap's margin. The volval remnants on the top of the stem's bulb make up several rather closely packed whole or broken [white or whitish] rings. |
| odor/taste | Fresh specimens are said to have an odor similar to "resin." |
| spores | The spore measurements are as follows: (8.0-) 8.4 - 10.8 (-12.0) × (5.6-) 6.4 - 8.0 (-10.0) μm. The spores are broadly ellipsoid to ellipsoid (infrequently subglobose or elongate) and inamyloid. Clamps are commonly present at bases of basidia. |

| intro |
The following text may make multiple use of each data field. The field may contain magenta text presenting data from a type study and/or revision of other original material cited in the protolog of the present taxon. Macroscopic descriptions in magenta are a combination of data from the protolog and additional observations made on the exiccata during revision of the cited original material. The same field may also contain black text, which is data from a revision of the present taxon (including non-type material and/or material not cited in the protolog). Paragraphs of black text will be labeled if further subdivision of this text is appropriate. Olive text indicates a specimen that has not been thoroughly examined (for example, for microscopic details) and marks other places in the text where data is missing or uncertain. The following material is derived from the protolog of the present taxon. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| discussion |
from protolog: The species contains muscimol and ibotenic acid; the name of the latter was derived from the Japanese name for this species when the species was mistakenly believed to be assignable to Amanita pantherina. The authors point out that this is clearly an error on both morphological and phylogenetic grounds. The rather common clamps in the present species indicate that it must be classified in series Amanita on morphological evidence alone. The authors suggest two taxa as most closely related to the present species—A. regalis and A. subglobosa. The following figure provides a comparison for sporographs of the present taxon and A. subglobosa: Sporograph comparison of the present species with A. regalis is provided in the following figure: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Spore data sets and their composite
Each spore data set is intended to comprise a set of measurements from a single specimen made by a single observer; and explanations prepared for this site talk about specimen-observer pairs associated with each data set. Combining more data into a single data set is non-optimal because it obscures observer differences (which may be valuable for instructional purposes, for example) and may obscure instances in which a single collection inadvertently contains a mixture of taxa.
