The following is a list of species of the agaric genus Amanita.This genus contains over 500 named species and varieties and follows the classification of subgenera and sections of Amanita outline by Corner and Bas; Bas, [1] [2] as used by Tulloss (2007) and modified by Redhead & al. (2016) [3] for Amanita subgenus Amanitina and Singer for Amanita section Roanokenses.

The white form of the death cap Amanita is often mistaken for edible Agaricus, with fatal results. A notable group of poisonous Agaricus is the clade around the yellow-staining mushroom, A. xanthodermus. [50] One species reported from Africa, A. aurantioviolaceus, is reportedly deadly poisonous.

The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to fungi and mycology: . Fungi – "Fungi" is plural for "fungus". A fungus is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes unicellular microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as multicellular fungi that produce familiar fruiting forms known as mushrooms.
Agaricaceae species use a wide variety of fruit body morphology. Although the pileate form (i.e., with a cap and stipe) is predominant, gasteroid and secotioid forms are known. In pileate species, the gills are typically thin, and free from attachment to the stipe.
A. mellea is the type species of the genus Armillaria.. Armillaria is a genus of fungi commonly known as honey mushrooms. First treated by Elias Magnus Fries in 1821, and later assigned generic rank by Friedrich Staude in 1857, [1] Armillaria is classified in the family Physalacriaceae of the Agaricales, the gilled mushrooms. [2]
In addition to these typical agaricoid forms, the family contains species with fruitbodies that are laterally striped , closed (secotioid or gasteroid), or crust-like . Molecular phylogenetics has demonstrated close affinities between species with very different fruitbody types and has discovered new, distinct lineages .
Lepiota is a genus of gilled mushrooms in the family Agaricaceae.All Lepiota species are ground-dwelling saprotrophs with a preference for rich, calcareous soils. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are agaricoid with whitish spores, typically with scaly caps and a ring on the stipe.
