There are many poisonous mushrooms in the Amanita family including but not limited to: Amanita virosa, or the destroying angel which is almost pure white in color; Amanita phalloides, or the death cap; and Amanita verna, or the spring amanita. These mushrooms can sometimes be hard to distinguish from hallucinogenic species of the same genus due to the variability of individual mushrooms and the presence of some subspecies. This makes it dangerous to attempt to harvest nonpoisonous mushrooms without expert knowledge. There are also hundreds of more poisonous mushrooms that look similar to edible mushrooms like puffballs, morels, etc. so one should only gather mushrooms if they have enough confidence in their to not fear for their live. I am in no way responsible for problems due to picking bad mushrooms and I am not encouraging anyone to pick any mushrooms.
