Amanita hemibapha, commonly known as the half-dyed slender Caesar, is a species of agaric found in southeast Asia and Oceania,[1] although some distribution reports may refer to different taxa.[2]
Toxicity[edit]
The variant Amanita hemibapha var. ochracea found in China has been reported to cause dizziness and nausea after eaten in large quantities. Thus, human consumption is generally not recommended.[3] The species is also noted to be confusable with the lethally toxic Amanita subjunquillea.
