I have documented this amanita in South Africa, in the Dragon Mountains. Unfortunately no one on iNaturalist has confirmed my opinion, but they are there, see map https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/67661-Amanita-rubescens
I know them from home, they are edible and good. Of course I haven't tried this one. I'll put it in Friday's mushroom show for interest, and maybe some of you will look directly at iNaturalist.
