Abstract

<p>　A case of poisoning by an agaric species was noticed in Aomori Prefecture, northern Japan, in September 1994. The fungus was identified as Lepista graveolens, previously known from Hokkaido, Japan. One hour after consumption of the cooked fruiting bodies with alcohol, the victim (a 68-year-old man) first experienced a twist in his tongue, then paralysis of the hands and feet and finally difficulty in walking, but returned to normal next day. The morphological characters of the fungus are fully described based on the Aomori materials.</p>
