Help needed

Ok i shall start with this, my first of the day....




now due to the greyish spots and dirty looking lower stem i think this is probably Amanita excelsa, my only qualm is the base and that deep groove on the bottom - some what pantherina like added to the fact it was growing in a hot bed for panthers. Here (below) is the only Amanita pantherina i found.....



Next one i think might be a Amanita fulva??



Is this a Amanita Gemmata....




It was growing in among some pine trees.

Finally some kind of boletus that was growing by a Silver Birch....

From the bottom up i suspect experts will say you have
Leccinum scabrum
Amanita citrina
Amanita fulva
Not enough left for ID
Amanita excelsa

Cheers J.P.

The one you say there is not enough for I.D is an Amanita Pantherina that i have no doubts on... just looking a little worse for wear but the base/ bulb was in a good condition, the picture is more focused on what remains of its cap rather then the base. I wasn't anticipating posting it, i was also been followed by some horses at the time of photographing.

The citrina, i had thought it might be this as it looks similiar, but i read somewere (possibly on this sight) that gemmatas are normaly found in pines and citrina in broad leafed woods.

Thanks though Cap for your help
