Dipodascus armillariae is a species of fungus that belongs to the family Dipodascaceae. It has been found in St. Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast, as well as other areas of north-western Russia, typically associated with honey mushrooms (Armillaria mellea) and other fungi. The fungus grows on the mycelium and fruiting bodies of its hosts, often forming yellow to orange-brown colonies.
Observations of the fungus Dipodascus armillariae were made in Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia on several occasions. In 2016, yeast mold was found growing on gills of honey mushrooms Armillaria borealis near Lisiy Nos, south of Saint Petersburg. Similar observations were made in 2017 in the Blizhnie Dubki area near Lisiy Nos, where Dipodascus armillariae was found on northern honey mushrooms. The fungus was observed growing on gills of the mushrooms, with multiple sightings recorded on September 26, 2017, in the same area. The observations suggest that Dipodascus armillariae is associated with Armillaria borealis in this region, and can be found growing on the mushroom's gills during the late summer and early fall months. Multiple sightings were made in the Blizhnie Dubki area, indicating a possible prevalence of the fungus in this location.
