Justification
Amanita calyptroderma is a very common species in the mixed evergreen forests of northern California, and more occasionally into Washington, USA. The population appears stable as no decline has been recorded. It is assessed as Least Concern.Taxonomic notes
Amanita calyptroderma was described from California, USA. The names Amanita calyptrata and A. lanei have also been applied to this species, but due to nomenclature and taxonomic issues, A. calyptroderma is the consensus accepted name (see Desjardin et al. 2015). The paler, spring fruiting 'form' (Thiers 1983, Arora 1986) was described as a distinct species, Amanita vernicoccora (Bojantchev et al. 2011).Geographic range
This species is very common from central California into southern Oregon in coastal and Coast Range forests. It is occasional south to Santa Barbara County, California, the Sierra Nevada foothills, and north into Washington, USA.Population and Trends
The population is widespread, and it is an abundant species across much of the range. No decline has been recorded.
Population Trend: stable
