Death cap
Fungi
Amanita phalloides, also known as the "death cap", is a highly poisonous mushroom responsible for most serious and fatal mushroom poisoning cases worldwide. It's believed to have originated in Europe and arrived in the United States in the late 20th century on the roots of imported trees. The death cap is a mycorrhizal fungus that often grows near oak tree roots. It has a white or slightly greenish-yellow cap, white or cream gills, and white spores.

Death Cap Mushroom Poisoning
Death cap mushroom poisoning is extremely serious and requires medical attention right away. Death cap mushroom symptoms typically progress through three stages.
Stage 1: Gastrointestinal Phase. The first stage of death cap mushroom poisoning usually happens between six and 24 hours after eating the mushroom. Typical symptoms of this first stage include:
Nausea and vomiting
Bloody diarrhea or urine
Abdominal pain
Fluid loss, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalance
Fever

Stage 3: Hepatorenal Phase. The final stage of death cap poisoning happens when the liver and kidneys are so damaged that they begin to shut down. This period is very dangerous and may require extreme medical intervention.
Symptoms of the hepatorenal phase typically start three to six days after eating the mushroom and include:
Loss of liver and kidney function
Jaundice
Low blood sugar
Delirium and confusion
