Record Details 12/08/2015 Snettisham, Ken Hill Estate; TF675345; litter, deciduous; Jenny Kelly; Jenny Kelly
02/11/2024 Sporle Wood; TF8611; soil; Charlie Hey; Jeremy Bartlett; Lit. cited: 186; Additional NotesVery similar to R. foetens (Stinking Brittlegill) but KOH makes the flesh go yellow and the spores have a different structure. The stem and gills bruised ochre and it tasted slightly hot. Kibby doesn't mention the fishy smell - usually described as oily or unpleasant - but apparently the fishiness develops in older specimens of R. foetens, according to the First Nature website - and presumably in R. subfoetens too. Second Norfolk record, but supposed to be commoner than R. foetens in the south of England.
