Summary: Color is accurate

Yep, the color is accurate. They pop up in Petaluma every year with an orangish ring on the cap. Take a look at observation 2559. Found two of them today under different trees.

Summary: Unusual color!

Is that orange color in the photos really accurate? I’ve seen A. ocreata with brown tones, never that bright.
