  1. Amanita sp-NFL08, Prov. of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. (RET 384-7) |
| cap | The cap always lacks a markedly browner or fulvous region over the center; in general, the cap is Pale Yellow-Orange to Light Ochraceous Buff. |
| stem | The stem is palely concolorous with the cap; at least in its upper third, the stem is pulverulent with concolorous material from the gill edges. The exterior surface of the sack-like volva is white and less dominated by rusty spots or stains than in A. fulva. The volva's internal limb is membranous and small and attached above the point of the main volva's attachment to the stem. |
| spores | The spores measure (10.2-) 10.7 - 12.1 (-12.8) × (9.5-) 9.9 - 11.3 (-12.0) µm and are subglobose and inamyloid. Clamp information t.b.d. |

| intro |
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 is based upon original research by R. E. Tulloss. | ||||||||
| basidiospores | [20/1/1] (10.2-) 10.7 - 12.1 (-12.8) × (9.5-) 9.9 - 11.3 (-12.0) µm, (L = 11.5 µm; W = 10.6 µm; Q = (1.05-) 1.06 - 1.13 (-1.14); Q = 1.09), smooth, thin-walled, colorless, hyaline, inamyloid, subglobose, adaxially flattened more or less; apiculus sublateral, small, cylindric; contents granular; color in deposit unknown. | ||||||||

| discussion |
Further work needs to be done to decide on the
species concepts of three currently (provisionally)
segregated Newfoundland & Labrador taxa.
The following figure compares the sporographs of the
present species,
A.
fulva Tulloss nom prov., and
A.
sp-NFL02. Small sample size may make
sporographs appear more different than they should. The following figure provides a comparison of the sporographs of the present species and a macroscopically similar species, A. homolalittenii: The following figure provides a comparison of the sporographs of the present species and a macroscopically similar species, A. kryorhodon: The following figure provides a comparison of the sporographs of the present species and a macroscopically similar species, A. fulva, which has a white color variant: | ||||||||

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.
