Fly Agaric Amanita muscaria

Amanita-muscaria.jpgThe Fly agaric (Amanita muscaria) is the archetypal red and white toadstool, white stem, ring and gills under a bright red cap, with white spots.  It is usually found under birch trees but is also widely recorded with other hardwoods and several species of conifer.  The geographical spread of the different tree associations is more or less unknown, as is the relative frequency with the different trees.  The data will help to see if there is a pattern, or not!
