Amanita pantherinoides, commonly known as the western panther[2] or western American false panther[3] is a species of mushroom in the family Amanitaceae.
[4][2] Amanita pantherinoides has long been thought to be the same as the nearly identical-looking Amanita pantherina, but it is now considered to be a distinct species.
[2] A. pantherina occurs in Europe and eastern North America, while A. pantherinoides occurs in western North America.
[4] Amanita pantherinoides has a light brown cap that is about 4–10 cm (1.6–3.9 in) wide.
[2] Amanita pantherinoides is mycorrhizal and grows under conifers, especially Douglas fir.
