chanterelle

Highly prized, fragrant, edible mushroom (Cantharellus cibarius, order Polyporales), rich yellow in colour, found in woods in summer and autumn. Its similarity to the poisonous jack-o-lantern (Clitocybe illudens, order Agaricales), an orange-yellow fungus of woods and stumps that glows in the dark, emphasizes the need for careful identification by the mushroom gatherer.
