"Amanita verna", commonly known as the fool's mushroom, is a poisonous basidiomycete fungus, one of many in the genus "Amanita". Occurring in Europe in spring, "A. verna" associates with various deciduous and coniferous trees. The large fruiting bodies ("i.e.", the mushrooms) appear in summer and autumn; the caps, stipes and gills are all white in colour.

Initially described by the French botanist Jean Baptiste François Pierre Bulliard, the fool's mushroom's specific epithet "verna" is derived from its springtime fruiting habit.
