Chlorophyllum molybdites, commonly known as the green-spored parasol,^[1] false parasol, green-spored lepiota and vomiter, is a common species of mushroom found in temperate and subtropical meadows and lawns.

The species is poisonous and produces severe gastrointestinal symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea. It is the most commonly consumed poisonous mushroom in North America, often being misidentified as edible species like Chlorophyllum rhacodes (the shaggy parasol) and Macrolepiota procera (parasol mushroom).
