RE: Fungi Friday – Red mushrooms with white spots

in #fungifriday6 years ago (edited)

Hello Lightsplasher,
Your fungi are indeed of the Agaric family, but those are: A. muscaria var. formosa which is indeed usually a yellow or orange colour as yours are. They are hallucinogenic too! And it is said they are named the "Fly" Agaric because of it's use, when mixed with milk, as a method of killing houseflies... I am not sure about that - but that's what they say!

Upvoted and resteemed :D

Thank you for additional information and the support. I didn't know that about the milk, I though maybe honey, water or something was used.

A pleasure LS :D
