Extract from Wikipedia article: Hebeloma sinapizans, commonly known as the rough-stalked Hebeloma, is a species of mushroom in the family Hymenogastraceae. It has a strong radish-like smell, and a prominent bulbous stem base. It is larger than the similar and more common H. crustuliniforme, a relative that is also poisonous. H. sinapizans is found in Europe and North America.
Hebeloma sinapizans is a species of mushroom that grows in association with trees, particularly conifers. In St. Petersburg and Leningrad Oblast, it has been found in urban parks and forests, often fruiting in late summer to early fall. In north-western Russia, it is widespread and common, typically occurring in moist, acidic soils under spruce, pine, or birch trees. The fungus produces medium-sized, bell-shaped caps with a reddish-brown to yellowish-brown color, and a stout, fibrillose stipe.
In Pavlovsk Park, located in the suburb of Saint Petersburg, Russia, an observation of Rough-stalked Hebeloma mushrooms (Hebeloma sinapizans) was made on August 22, 2016. The species was found to be present in the area, with specimens exhibiting characteristic features. Further observations in Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia revealed that Hebeloma sinapizans is relatively common in the region, often growing in association with trees, particularly conifers. The fungus was typically found in woodland edges, clearings, and along paths, where the soil is rich in organic matter. The observations suggest that Hebeloma sinapizans is a widespread species in the region, with a preference for specific habitat conditions. Additional studies are needed to fully understand the distribution and ecology of this species in north-western Russia. The observations provide valuable insights into the mycological diversity of the region.
