| Amanita Phalloides entry
The text of the entry for amanita phalloides states, "This common mushroom is responsible for 90% of cases of mushroom poisoning." The word "fatal" ought to be inserted in this to make the death cap "responsible for 90% of cases of fatal mushroom poisoning." I believe agaricus xanthodermus is responsible for the largest number of mushroom poisonings in the UK thanks to it's similarity to other edible and commonly collected agaricus species. |
