The rosewood deaf or small leather deaf ( Russula melitodes ) is a mushroom from the family of the deaf relatives . It is a very rare, medium-sized Bluebird with a mild taste, a purple-brown hat and yellow ocher spore powder, which looks very similar to the Brown Leather Bluebird , but occurs in deciduous forests.

features

Macroscopic features

The rather fleshy and firm hat is 5–8 (10) cm wide, at first almost spherical, then spread out and finally depressed. The smooth, mostly matt to almost velvety hat skin is only sticky and shiny when it rains and can be peeled off about halfway. In old age it can also be radially derogatory. Under the hat skin, the flesh is yellowish with a distinct purple-pink tinge. The edge of the young mushroom is quite sharp, but later rather blunt. It is not furrowed and at most occasionally grooved briefly in old age. The colors are purple-brown or dirty purple or wine-red, similar to the brown leather blubber, and almost red at the edge. They fade to a more or less yellow greenish color, with the middle colored brownish ocher.

The rather dense lamellae are dull, relatively wide and brightly colored buttery to yolk or ocher yellow. They are often connected across the stem towards the stem. The spore powder is also ocher yellow ( according to Romagnesi IVb ).

The stem is quite short and slightly clubbed and about 4–7 cm long and 1–2 (3) cm wide. It is hard and full for a long time, mostly whitish with occasional straw-yellow or brownish spots. At the base of the stem it is often almost reddish brown or bluish in color. The Forma coloratipes Bon & Weholt has a colored stem that is the same color (albeit faded) to the hat. With phenol , the stalk turns raspberry to purple-red.

The meat is white and firm and only turns yellow or browns a little when it is dry. It is also yellowish in color at bite sites. The taste is mild, the smell is slightly fruity. In old age, the meat sometimes smells slightly honey-like. The guaiac reaction is positive. With FeSO 4 it reacts only weakly or variably and with sulfoformol it reacts slightly pink.

Microscopic features

The spores are 8.5–10 (11) µm long and 6–8 (9) µm wide and are covered with isolated, almost long-spiky thorns. The cystids are blunt, about 70–100 µm long and 10–13.5 µm long. The Pileocystiden of the cap skin are several times septate and at the end often widened club-shaped. In the hat skin also come encrusted Primordial hyphen before whose tip is thinned and not narrowed. The sulfobenzaldehyde reaction is only weak.

Species delimitation

The brown leather blubber looks very similar, but is usually larger and usually occurs under spruce trees in coniferous forests. The leather tire with tires is also similar.

Ecology and diffusion

European countries with evidence of finding of the rosewood blubber.
Legend:
  • Countries with found reports
  • Countries without evidence
  • no data
  • non-European countries
  • The rosewood deaf is a mycorrhizal fungus that usually appears under oak or hornbeam in deciduous forests in summer. He prefers better, slightly calcareous clay soils. The rare species is only known from Europe.

    It is very rare in Germany. Only a few sites are known. The red list of large mushrooms in Germany lists the species as critically endangered (endangerment category 1).

    Systematics

    Inquiry systematics

    The Kleine Leder-Täubling is a representative of the subsection Integrinae , which is a subsection of the Polychromae section . The representatives of the subsection are mostly large or medium-sized species with variable, but often brown or purple colored hats and a pure white stem. They have yellow to ocher-yellow spore powder and taste completely mild.

    meaning

    The Small Leather Täubling is edible, but should be spared due to its rarity.
