The gold deafness ( Russula aurea , syn. Russula aurata ) is a fungus from the family of deaf relatives . The scientific species name is derived from the Latin adjective "aureus" and means golden.

features

Macroscopic features

The hat of the gold blubber is 5–10 cm wide, almost spherical when young, later arched to spread out. In old age, the middle is mostly depressed. The surface is sticky and shiny and has a splendid golden yellow, brick red to blood red color. The colors are often mixed with each other, but the hat can also be colored gold-yellow or purple-red in one color. The edge is smooth when young and can be furrowed with age.

The lamellae are light yellow when young and later buttery to pale ocher yellow. They often have a lemon to chrome yellow edge. However, this feature can sometimes be missing. The lamellae are rounded and grown on the stem and are very brittle. The spore powder is ocher yellow.

The stem is up to 7 cm high, strong, white and often lemon yellow. The flesh is white, yellow under the cap, and tastes mild, sometimes a little bitter.

The flesh turns pink or pale brown-gray with iron sulfate . The guaiac reaction is strongly positive, the meat turns blue / green. With phenol, the meat turns brown or purple to wine red.

Microscopic features

The spores are 7.5–9 µm long and 6–8 µm almost spherical to broadly elliptical with conical, 0.7–1.5 µm high warts. Thin to thick burr-like connections are formed between the warts, which form a partial network with a few meshes.

The hat skin hyphae are pointed. They are cylindrical, spindle-shaped or slightly club-shaped. Neither dermatocystidia nor hyphae stain with fuchsin or sulfovanillin. No pileocystids can be detected in the cap skin.

Species delimitation

The Gold-Täubling is usually recognized by the intense golden yellow hat color, rare very dark red specimens usually still have chrome-yellow spots. The safest characteristic is the lemon to chrome yellow color on the blade edges, on the handle and under the cap skin.
Forms without yellow pigment can only be distinguished from similarly colored species by a precise microscopic examination.

ecology

The gold-horned blubber occurs particularly in light, grass-rich deciduous forests, but can also be found in coniferous forests. Its preferred mycorrhizal partner is the common beech , much less often it enters into a partnership with spruce , oak , hazelnut , linden or other deciduous trees. The fungus appears from July to October, sometimes even earlier, usually singly or in small groups. The fungus prefers fresh, basic to neutral, lime-rich, but low-nitrogen, basalt, loess, brewing earth or limestone soils. The fungus occurs predominantly in the hills and mountains, in the lowlands it is very rare.

distribution

European countries with evidence of finding of the gold deafness.
Legend:
  • Countries with found reports
  • Countries without evidence
  • no data
  • non-European countries
  • The gold deafling occurs in Europe, North America (USA), North Africa (Morocco) and North Asia (Japan, North and South Korea).

    In Germany it is comparatively rare and listed on the Red List in the hazard category RL3. In large parts of Germany, however, it is much rarer or completely absent.

    Systematics

    As a mild-tasting, relatively large, red-capped species with yellow-colored lamellae and spore powder, the golden- deaf bird is placed in the Coccineae section.

    Subspecies and varieties

    Russula aurea f. axantha is a form without yellow pigment and is therefore often macroscopically not recognized as a gold deaf .

    meaning

    The gold deaf mushroom is a good edible mushroom, but due to its rarity it should be better protected.
