Taxonomy
Amanita groenlandica was classified by the mycologists Henning Knudsen and Torbjørn Borgen in 1987[1] after a previous classification by Dutch mycologist Cornelis Bas failed to satisfy the rules for a valid publication.[2]
Habitat and distribution
A. groenlandica is an arctic species described from Greenland. In 2022 the fungus was documented in the Cairngorms mountains of Scotland based on DNA analysis performed on soil samples.[3]
