Saffron milk-cap Lactarius deliciosus
Lactarius deliciosus
03 november 2022, Basse Ham, Thionville Portes de France, Moselle, Lorraine, France. It's fall. In the forest, a Mild Milkcap among the dead leaves. The cap of the mushroom is conical, already well raised. The mushroom is uniformly pale salmon pink.
Lactarius pubescens, commonly known as the downy milk cap, is a species of fungus in the family Russulaceae. It is a medium to large agaric with a creamy-buff, hairy cap, whitish gills and short stout stem. The fungus has a cosmopolitan distribution, and grows solitarily or in scattered groups on sandy soil under or near birch. \nDescription:\nThe cap is 2.5–10 cm wide, obtuse to convex, becoming broadly convex with a depressed center. The margin (cap edge) is rolled inward and bearded with coarse white hairs when young. The cap surface is dry and fibrillose except for the center, which is sticky and smooth when fresh, azonate, white to cream, becoming reddish-orange to vinaceous (red wine-colored) on the disc with age. The gills are attached to slightly decurrent, crowded, seldom forked, whitish to pale yellow with pinkish tinges, slowly staining brownish ochraceous when bruised. The stem is 2–6.5 cm long, 6–13 mm thick, nearly equal or tapered downward, silky, becoming hollow with age, whitish when young, becoming ochraceous from the base up when older, apex usually tinged pinkish, often with a white basal mycelium. The flesh is firm, white; odor faintly like geraniums or sometimes pungent, taste acrid. The latex is white upon exposure, unchanging, not staining tissues, taste acrid. The spore print is cream with a pinkish tint. The edibility of Lactarius pubescens has been described as unknown, poisonous, and even edible.\nEdibility: Ambiguous and controversial. In Russia is consumed after prolonged boiling followed by a marinating process. However it is reported to have caused gastro-intestinal upsets. Therefore, its consumption should not be recommended and this species considered toxic (source Wikipedia).

Russulaceae. There are some excellent edible mushrooms in the Russulaceae family, some of which can even be eaten raw. However, the family also includes inedible mushrooms, which can cause gastrointestinal upset. What's more, there are also some deadly toxic species in the Russulaceae family, such as *Russula subnigricans*. Ingestion of *Russula subnigricans* can cause very severe rhabdomyolysis, and this mushroom is a major culprit in mushroom poisoning in China and Japan. When you find these mushrooms, do not collect or eat them at random. If you experience discomfort after ingesting them, seek medical help as soon as possible.
Commonly known as the saffron milk cap and red pine mushroom. An alternative name is orange latex milky. Its Spanish names are níscalo, nícalo, robellón, rovelló, pinetell.
