Amanita parvipantherina, also known as the Asian small panther amanita, is a Chinese species of agaric which fruits in July and August. It has a brown cap up to 6 centimetres (2+1⁄2 inches) wide covered with whitish remnants of the universal veil. The stem is up to 9 cm tall. The similar A. pantherina is usually larger and less fragile, with fainter striations around the cap margin.[2]
The species is restricted to Yunnan province in China, where it is strongly associated with Pinus yunnanensis (the Yunnan pine).[2]
