The velvet deafening ( Russula amoena ) is a fungus from the family of the deaf relatives . The blubber has a crimson to purple, matt, velvety hat and, at least in old age, a distinct smell of crab or herring. Another good macrochemical feature is the vivid purple to purple brown phenol reaction. Other names for this mushroom are Velvet Täubling and Beautiful Täubling .

features

Macroscopic features

The hat is 2–6 cm wide, convex when young, then spread out and often indented to slightly funnel-shaped in the middle. With age, the edge is spread out to slightly curved and cracked. In terms of color, the hat is very variable, mostly between carmine red and purple, but also red-brown, purple or with cloudy purple or green tones. At least initially, the hat skin is fine and matt. It's pretty easy to pull off.

The lamellae are pale cream to ocher yellow, rather narrow and brittle. They stand relatively crowded and are often forked directly on the handle. The lamellar sheaths can also be discolored pink.

The slender and cylindrically shaped stem is 3–6 cm long and 0.5–2 cm wide and often narrowed at the base. It is whitish, but mostly pink to lavender and lightly frosted. It is only very rarely whitish.

The meat is whitish and brittle and, at least with age, smells slightly like herring. The taste is mild. The spore powder is light cream in color.

Microscopic features

The broadly elliptical spores are 6–8 µm long and 6–7 µm wide. They are rather coarse black, crystallized to partially reticulate. The warts are up to 0.8 µm high. The cheilocystids on the lamellar edge are 40–80 (100) µm long and 6–7.5 µm wide. Pleurocystidia on the lamellar surfaces are 30–45 (55) µm long and 6–8 (10) µm wide and are usually very rare or absent. They are irregularly cylindrical in shape.

ecology

Like all pigeons, the velvet pigeon is a mycorrhizal fungus that forms a symbiosis with various deciduous trees and, more rarely, with conifers. He prefers oak , followed by red beech and spruce . It seldom enters into a partnership with firs , pines or other deciduous trees.

One finds the fungus especially in oak-hornbeam forests as Birch Stieleichen- and Luzulo-beech forests , but also in chestnut groves, clearings, along roadsides. He loves mild winter, sunny and in summer dry locations. The Täubling is found on very to moderately dry soils that should be low in bases and acidic. He prefers moderately nutrient-rich, predominantly shallow sandy or gravel soils over sandstones or primary rock rich in quartz.

The fruiting bodies appear from late June to October. The fungus is found in the hill and middle mountain regions.

distribution

European countries with evidence of finding of the velvet pavilion.
Legend:
  • Countries with found reports
  • Countries without evidence
  • no data
  • non-European countries
  • The fungus is found in North Africa (Morocco) and Europe and possibly also in Asia (Japan). It is a meridional to temperate , oceanic to suboceanic species. This means that the deafblings occur more in the warmer, Atlantic-influenced, southwestern and western Europe.

    In Germany, the Samttäubling seems to be quite rare in the north and east of Germany and only occurs sporadically in the west and south-west, in North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate and Baden-Württemberg.

    Systematics

    Inquiry systematics

    The velvet pigeon is the type of sub-section Amoeninae , which is within the section Heterophyllae . The deafnesses of this subsection have reddish to violet colored, mostly velvety matt hats, which more rarely can also be greenish, brownish or yellowish in color. They taste mild and, at least in old age, smell like crabs or herring. Your spore powder is off-white.

    meaning

    The mushroom is edible, but should be spared in Germany as a rarity.
