'''Amanitas''' are enemies found in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. They are found in the [[Forest Maze]] and many disguise themselves as common [[Mushroom]]s until they reveal themselves and attack. One Amanita instead hides in an underground bush and ambushes Mario when he passes by. "{{wp|Amanita}}" resembles and is named for a real genus of fungi, which was also the inspiration for the [[Super Mushroom]], and has a small pair of eyes that are usually covered by its cap.

In battle, an Amanita attacks by hitting a [[party member]] with its cap, or using the special attack [[Sporocyst]] to turn them into [[Mushroom (status effect)|Mushrooms]]. If hit with a physical attack, it responds with a physical attack of its own.

An Amanita appears in [[Monstro Town]] acting as a lamp for the inn, and has a connection with the [[Three Musty Fears]], telling Mario they will be back.
