Amanita ‘sandhill’

Amanita ‘sandhill’ Location: Ponderosa Lodge, Santa Cruz Co., California, USA

Collection Date: 26-Nov-11

Project #: CSALVA-25

Comments: We've known about Santa Cruz's apparently endemic ‘Sandhill’ Amanita since at least David Arora's time, but it has yet to be given a specific epithet. It repeatedly has resisted sequencing efforts (both in this run and by Nhu Nguyen at UCB independently), so it appears that it will remain unnamed a bit longer (until we figure how to coax out its genetic secrets).

Sequence: >H06_3087_1F+ITS4_83 (DIRTY)
