Species of fungus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lanmaoa pallidorosea, formerly known as Boletus pallidoroseus, is a fungus of the genus Lanmaoa native to North America.[1] It was described scientifically by Ernst Both in 1998.[2] The species was transferred from Boletus to Lanmaoa in 2019.[3] Lanmaoa pallidorosea is the most closely related known species to Lanmaoa asiatica.[1] Lanmaoa asiatica is found in East and Southeast Asia such as in China and the Philippines and is known to produce Lilliputian hallucinations when eaten raw or undercooked.[1] According to mycologist Colin Domnauer, who is studying Lanmaoa asiatica, Lanmaoa pallidorosea is commonly consumed cooked without any negative effects.[1][4][5]
