	Lepiota and Satellite Genera (MushroomExpert.Com)
		The genus used to consist of saprobic gilled mushrooms with white spore prints, gills that are free from the stem, partial veils that typically leave a ring on the stem--and, under the microscope, smooth, dextrinoid spores.
		Found in grass and cultivated areas; cap whitish to yellowish, with pinkish brown scales clustered near the center; gills greenish to brownish; stem with a ring.
		Lepiota cristata: Found in woods or in disturbed ground areas near trees; cap small (1-5 cm), white with reddish brown scales; stem smooth, with a fragile ring; often with a fragrant or distinctively foul odor.

	Lepiota - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lepiota is a genus of fungi, in the order Agaricales.
		The cap usually has scales: the colours of the cap, gills and scales are important in determining the exact species, as is sometimes the smell.
		In the case of Lepiota rachodes (see note), the most obvious feature is that the stems turn orange then saffron when they are broken or cut.

		Lepiota clypeolaria is the name given to this beautiful and toxic mushroom.
		Lepiota naucina likes to grow in lawns and grassy places in the summer.
		Lepiota rubritincta is another woodland Lepiota that has a dark "eye" in the middle of the whitish cap.

		Lepiota rubrotincta Peck is synonymous with Leucoagaricus rubrotinctus.
		Leucocoprinus americanus (Peck) Redhead is synonymous with Lepiota americana.
		Lepiota are small or big mushrooms with caps that have either a radially ruptured cuticle or smaller scales that are usually darker than the background color, Two species in this key may eventually be placed in genera with which they are closely allied: Lepiota barssii in Leucoagaricus, and Lepiota petasiformis in Cystolepiota.

		Fruitbodies of Lepiota species are frequently seen in woods and pastures, sometimes growing in deep shade beneath coniferous trees.
		The fruitbodies of the species illustrated (Lepiota rhacoides - the Shaggy Parasol) are unmistakable because they are large, have a conspicuously bulbous base and the cap is covered with scales.
		Fruitbodies of Lepiota (Lepiota rhacoides, the 'Shaggy Parasol'), photographed in late July; John Muir Country Park, East Lothian, Scotland.

	California Fungi: Lepiota magnispora
		Scattered to grouped under hardwoods and conifers; fruiting from late fall to mid-winter.
		A number of small Lepiotas are known to contain the same type toxins as in Amanita phalloides, the Death Cap.
		Lepiota magnispora is a beautiful woodland species easily recognized by its coarsely scaled, yellowish-brown cap, appendiculate margin, shaggy stipe, free gills and white spore print.

		PEELE'S LEPIOTA STORY AS TOLD BY S.L PEELE HIMSELF...for all the "expert" know it alls During the late 1970's I was devoting a lot of time collecting different mushroom samples from pasture areas.
		Perhaps the Lepiota that bears your name is a new species containing a yet unknown drug.
		This is untrue as Jeremy and his team have the common name of Peele's Lepiota, later to be identified as Luecogaricus ginerascens, and then later as identified by myself as Lepiota humei.

	California Fungi: Lepiota roseilivida
		This attractive, diminutive Lepiota is distinctive with its vinaceous-purple, finely scaled cap and purple-tinged stipe.
		In the case of Lepiota roseifolia, all parts redden when injured, while in Lepiota flammeatincta, only the gills remain white.
		This taxa belongs in Leucoagaricus, but we are keeping it in Lepiota until a recombination of the names is published.

		I was convinced it was a Lepiota spp.
		I did look very carefully at Lepiota aspera as a possibility, but with the benefit of having the actual specimen at hand I thought the characteristics seemed different.
		The cap of my unknown (?) Lepiota was very tawny brown and with larger flatter scales (not the small flish pointed scales of L aspera) and the cap had a wavy edge.

	POISONOUS AND HALLUCINOGENIC MUSHROOMS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Lepiota josserandii is one of several small Lepiota species that have lethal levels of amatoxins.
		The victim, a very experienced mushroomer, thought that he was eating Lepiota excoriata and knew of no reports of poisonous Lepiota species in New York.
		Since the edibility of many mushrooms is not well determined and since identifications of many of the poisonous mushrooms can be difficult, it is hoped that doctors involved in treating mushroom poisonings would promptly seek the help of trained mushroom identifiers.

		Lepiota rachodes is a very distinctive large and choice edible mushroom that fruits during warm weather on rich ground.
		I have found Lepiota rachodes with caps exceeding the size of a dinner plate.
		The feature that sets Lepiota rachodes apart from its poisonous look-alike is a rapid red-orange bruising reaction in Lepiota rachodes where the bruised area slowly turns brown.

	Leucocoprinus birnbaumii, aka Lepiota lutea, the yellow houseplant or house plant soil mushroom, Tom Volk's Fungus of ...
		Leucocoprinus birnbaumii, aka Lepiota lutea, the yellow houseplant or house plant soil mushroom, Tom Volk's Fungus of the Month for February 2002,
		This month's fungus is Leucocoprinus birnbaumii, aka Lepiota lutea, the yellow houseplant mushroom.
		Most researchers, however, believe that Leucocoprinus is related to the genus Lepiota, which in turn is closely related to Agaricus (Agaricaceae), in a different family from Coprinus in the broad sense (Coprinaceae or Psathyrellaceae).

		A fleshy fungi similar in macro-characters to the Agarics but with a white or pale spore print and spores typically pseudoamyloid.
		This maybe due to me miss understanding the keys or a species that has not yet been described (named).

	Lepiota Rhacodes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Sue and I went for a walk into Cambridge on Tuesday 23 October, mainly to see the flooding that had occurred.
		When I was in town I popped in to the Cambridge Cheese Shop on All Saints Passage, to see if the proprieter was back from vacation, because one of the staff there had told me he was a fanatical mushroom forager.
		All books confirm that this lepiota can cause gastric upsets or rashes in some people, so I decided not to drink any alcohol near the time that I was going to eat this mushroom, as some people believe alcohol can exacerbate problems with this mushroom.

	Lepiota what's his name? - Shroomery Message Board (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Other than the note that Lepiota brunnescens has been found at two separate NAMA forays, I cannot find anything on it on the net or in my books.
		Pileus 2.5-4 cm, convex or disc flattened, appressed fibrillose, slightly squamulose near margin, the disc and fibrils along with the squamules pinkish red; context white, unchanging.
		Since this species doesn't bruise, it's not correct; the question is whether it's the same as the one in Arora (is one a typo, or are there two species).

		First described from Cuba, this Lepiota can be found on the islands of the Lesser Antilles, and we have collected it along the Rio Tuichi in Bolivia and at Las Cruces Biological Station in the southern Talamancas of Costa Rica.
		It is a very handsome agaric with a tan to cream colored pileus beset with brown lines and detersile scales.
		The cheilocystidia are clavate to more or less pyriform, and the dextrinoid spores are subfusoid to subcylindric with a truncate base.

	Chlorophyllum molybdites, the green spored Lepiota, Tom Volk's Fungus of the Month for August 1999
		In the picture, the poisonous Chlorophyllum molybdites is on the left and the delicious edible mushroom Lepiota rhacodes is on the right.
		Several other edible Lepiota species can also be confused with Chlorophyllum molybdites, including the parasol mushroom Lepiota procera, and also Lepiota americana.
		The major difference between Chlorophyllum and Lepiota is that Chlorophyllum develops green tinted spores and a green spore print.

		This means unless you're an expert in the field of mycology (the study of fungi), it's best to stick with those mushrooms down at the local supermarket.
		While the Lepiota type will cause serious illness, selection of the wrong species of Amanita for the cookpot, could lead to fatal results.
		Toxin from a few of the really poisonous ones are so potent that near-fatal liver damage has already occurred by the time the person realizes they've been poisoned.
