The Fungi World (341) : Fly Agaric
No fungi season is complete without the fly agaric.
I’m always glad to find this species each year :-))
This red and white spotted toadstool is probably the most well-known, conspicuous and cosmopolitan fungus and besides very photogenic too.
Although poisonous, it’s a common used image in fairy tales, children's books, christmas cards and new year cards from around the world as a symbol of good luck.
Dutch name : Vliegenzwam
German name : Fliegenpilz
Latin name : Amanita muscaria

Interesting to know : images dating back to 3500 BC (!) painted in caves at Algeria, depict fungi, more than likely including the fly agaric.
A big thanks to for the nomination of this picture !
