Amanita umbrinella, more commonly known as Australian umber amanita, is a species of fungus in the genus Amanita. It is found in Australia.[2]
The cap is convex before it becomes flat, with the center becoming depressed; it is around 70–100 mm in diameter and breaks into patches as it ages; it can be brownish-gray, buff grey, or olivaceous-black.[3][4][5][6] The stripe is clavate and is 70–120 mm long, 10–25 mm wide. It has a bulb that is about 25 mm long. It has a white, striated ring.[3][4][5][6] The gills are free from the stem, and it is white, cream, or light buff.[3][6] The spores of Amanita umbrinellla are white. They are ellipsoid and measure 8.3–9.6 × 5.4–6.9 μm and are inamyloid.[3]
