Amanita muscaria, commonly known as the fly agaric or fly amanita, is a mushroom and psychoactive basidiomycete fungus, one of many in the genus Amanita.

This quintessential toadstool is a large white-gilled, white-spotted, usually red mushroom, and is one of the most recognisable and widely encountered in popular culture. Several subspecies with differing cap colour have been recognised, including the brown regalis (often considered a separate species), the yellow-orange flavivolvata, guessowii, formosa, and the pinkish persicina. Genetic studies published in 2006 and 2008 show several sharply delineated clades that may represent separate species.

Although classified as poisonous, reports of human deaths resulting from its ingestion are extremely rare. After parboiling—which weakens its toxicity and breaks down the mushroom's psychoactive substances—it is eaten in parts of Europe, Asia, and North America. Amanita muscaria is noted for its hallucinogenic properties, with its main psychoactive constituent being the compound muscimol. The mushroom was used as an intoxicant and entheogen by the peoples of Siberia, and has a religious significance in these cultures. There has been much speculation on possible traditional use of this mushroom as an intoxicant in other places such as the Middle East, Eurasia, North America, and Scandinavia.

The Netherlands

Amanita muscaria, commonly known as the 'Fly agaric' or 'Fly amanita' or in Dutch 'Vliegenzwam" is known by almost everyone.

It was the first mushroom/fungus I photographed this year and I thought at that time that maybe I would spot a few more....... Never could have dreamed that it would be so many....

Hope you enjoyed this series, which now have come to an end.

Thanks for your appreciation, faves and views, dear friends !

Near to the Mapperley wood hide and well protected by stinging nettles........

This one was about 4 cms across, and was near to a much larger and flatter one that was not as photogenic as it had been partially eaten by something. I wonder if that something is now happily tripping.......

Fly agaric (Amanita muscaria) 🍄🍄 Famous, enchanting and highly toxic. Fly agaric is the home of fairies and magical creatures and a lover of birch woodland, where it helps trees by transferring nutrients into their roots, but if eaten can cause hallucinations and psychotic reactions.

Thanks for all the nice comments, it is much appreciated
