Cortinarius bolaris is a species of fungus that belongs to the family Cortinariaceae. It has been found in St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and other areas of north-western Russia, typically growing in coniferous and mixed forests, often associated with spruce and pine trees. The fungus produces small to medium-sized fruiting bodies with bell-shaped caps that are reddish-brown to yellowish-brown in color, and a stipe of similar color. It is considered a rare species in the region, with limited records of its occurrence.
Observations of Cortinarius bolaris in Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia reveal a presence of the species in various locations. The fungus was found between Orekhovo and Lembolovo, as well as in Dibuny, both areas located north-west from Saint Petersburg. Multiple sightings occurred in July and August 2016, with specific observations on July 27, August 9 (twice), August 13, and August 18. The mushrooms were identified as small dappled webcap, also known by their Russian name Pautinnik Lenivy. These findings suggest that Cortinarius bolaris is present in the region during the summer months, particularly in areas surrounding Saint Petersburg. The repeated sightings in Dibuny and near Orekhovo indicate a possible concentration of the species in these areas.
