Panthercap: the species in brief
How to tell it
The cap is grey-brown to dark brown with small white patches. The gills are white. There is usually a ring on the stem and a bulbous base with a distinct rim or collar. The plain brown cap makes it less obvious than Fly Agaric.
Where it grows
Mostly in broadleaved and mixed woodland, often on light or sandy soils.
