Description
The beautiful Hawaiian death cap mushroom, (Chlorophyllum molybdides). The cap is whitish in color with coarse brownish scales. This week I found a number of them popping up in the forrest behind my house after a month of heavy rain. According to Wikipedia, it is causing the most fungally induced emergency room visits in Hawai'i, and is the most commonly consumed poisonous mushroom in North America.
