zelena pupavka · Amanita phalloides
The deadliest mushroom in Europe and the reason foragers must be certain: a plain greenish cap that can be mistaken for edible species, with no antidote for its liver-destroying toxins. The golden rule — never eat any wild mushroom you can't identify with total confidence.
Identification & best seen
Olive-green to yellowish cap, white gills, a ring on the stem and a sac-like cup (volva) at the base.
Habitat & where to see
Broadleaf woodland, especially under oak, summer–autumn.
A single cap can be fatal — and symptoms are deceptively delayed by hours, so seek help immediately if in doubt.
