Rows of poisonous (tiger) are extremely dangerous inedible mushrooms. They are also called “poisonous talus” in another way. The toxicity of this fungus is due to the large concentration of the alkaloid muscarin. The same substance is contained in red fly agaric.
Appearance
Poisonous row is represented by a hat and a leg. The size of the hat ranges in the range from 4 to 12 centimeters in diameter. There are also rather large mushrooms with a 15 centimeter hat. Young mushrooms are endowed with a spherical hat, which becomes flat with wrapped edges with the age of the mushroom. The skin covering the hat is painted in a grayish color, black and gray hats are also found. On the surface are dark scales located in a circle. The plates under the hat are located up to 12 millimeters. Differ in fleshy and painted white with a green or yellow shade.
The leg can be from 4 to 15 centimeters in height with a width of up to 3.5 centimeters. The shape of the legs is cylindrical and thickened to the base. The inside is continuous with a fibrous surface. The color is predominantly yellow, but it can have a rusty shade at the base.
White mushroom pulp on a hat and gray on the leg. With a break, the color does not change. There may be a sweet taste with a pleasant soft smell.
Territory of growth
The mushroom growth period begins in August and lasts until the end of October. Mixed or coniferous forests prefer the growth environment. However, there is a small number of these mushrooms in deciduous forests and on the edges. Poisonous rows growing in lime soils are growing. Most often, one appear one at a time, but there are witch’s circles from these mushrooms. Spread in the territory with the temperate climate of the Northern Hemisphere.
