Amanita labiliannulus is a species of mushroom in the genus Amanita, characterized by its yellow to golden-yellow cap, white gills, and volva at the base of the stem. In East and Central Texas, it typically fruits in late summer to early fall, often in association with oak and pine trees. The cap can range from 3-8 cm in diameter and is often umbonate, with a distinctive annulus or ring on the stem. It has been found in various regions of East and Central Texas, including the Piney Woods and Post Oak Savannah ecoregions.
Observations of the fungus Amanita labiliannulus in East and Central Texas reveal its presence in specific regions. In Lick Creek Park, College Station, Texas, on June 28, 2019, mushrooms identified as Amanita stirps Strobilaceovolvata or possibly slipping ring ringless Amanita (Amanita labiliannulus) were found. The species was noted to be thriving in the area, suggesting a suitable environment for its growth. Further observations are needed to fully understand the distribution and habits of Amanita labiliannulus in East and Central Texas. The discovery of this fungus in Lick Creek Park highlights the diversity of fungal species in the region and encourages continued exploration and documentation of mycological finds in the area. The specific characteristics of the habitat and the time of year may also play a role in the appearance of this species.
