About Lepiota lilacea Bres.
Lepiota lilacea Bres. (Lepiota lilacea) is a species of fungus in the Agaricaceae family. It was first formally described in 1893 in Italy by Giacomo Bresadora, in his publication Fungi Tridentini. This species can be identified by its small cap, which grows up to 36 mm across and has a dark purple center, plus its clearly visible annulus. The spores of Lepiota lilacea are non-dextrinoid, meaning they do not turn reddish-brown when tested with Melzer's reagent. This fungus is poisonous to humans, and it is native to Europe and America.
