I think that this time Ron, you have A. pantherina. The warts are small and usually evenly spaced (not patchy like seen in A. excelsa/spissa) and the brown is more of a chocolate brown than a tan brown. I'd monitor them if you could to see how obvious the striations are in the cap and distinguish any differences between this and A. spissa. |

Definitely worth checking back. Although I see what Nick means, the veil looks a little bit grey to me. |

These at first glance to me look like the greying amanita.... as mentioned the warts look to grey. Ron Check back on these mushrooms in a few days if you could, please. |

Well that was my only concern, but I sort of 'tucked it away' due to cross referencing images of (probably incorrectly ID'd) A. pantherina. | | |
