Extract from Wikipedia article: Rhodocollybia butyracea, common name Buttery Collybia, is a species of fungus in the mushroom family Marasmiaceae.
Rhodocollybia butyracea is a small to medium-sized agaric fungus with a butter-yellow to golden-brown cap and white to pale yellow gills. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, it typically grows in coniferous and mixed forests, often associated with spruce, pine, or birch trees. Fruiting bodies usually appear from July to October, preferring moist, acidic soils with abundant leaf litter and moss cover. The species is considered widespread but not particularly common in the region, with scattered records from various nature reserves, parks, and forest areas.
Observations of Rhodocollybia butyracea in Leningrad Oblast and north-western Russia show that the fungus grows in various locations near Saint Petersburg. It was found in areas such as Lisiy Nos, Kavgolovo Lake, Dibuny, Pavlovsk Park, and Sosnovka Park between August and November. The mushrooms were observed growing in groups and individually in forests, including spruce forests, and parks. Specific locations include New Sylvia and Old Sylvia in Pavlovsk Park, where the fungus was found on September 26 and November 1, 2016, respectively. Similar observations were made in Sosnovka Park on multiple dates in 2017, including August 21 and September 16. The fungus appears to thrive in these regions, with repeated sightings over several years.
