Leucoagaricus tricolor is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Agaricaceae. [1] [2]
It was described in 1989 by the German mycologist Rolf Singer who classified it as Leucoagaricus tricolor. [3]

Cap: 6mm wide and convex. The surface is purple with a paler margin and a purple fibrillose coating. Gills: Crowded, free, pale grey drying to brown-grey. Stem: 14cm long and 0.6mm thick. The surface is white with a powdery (pruinose) coating. The stem ring is white and also pruinose. Spores: Ellipsoidal with a double wall and obvious germ pore. Dextrinoid. (7.5) 8.2-9 x 4.5-5.2 μm. Basidia: 24-27 x 7.5-9.5μm. Four spored. [3]
The specimens studied by Singer were found growing on clay soil in the tropical forests of Brazil, 30km North of Manaus. [3]
