Features

Macroscopic characteristics

The hat is 0.5-1.5 cm wide, hemispherical young, then arched flat and often slightly hunched. The smooth, matte surface is grooved to furrowed dark almost to the middle and fresh vivid colored pink to salmon color. The center is usually darker. The edge is sharp and notched.

The pretty remotely located under mixed lamellae are grown on the stem or running slightly down it. They are light pink, its smooth edges are strong, dark - colored pink. The spore powder is white.

The thin, cylindrical and hollow stem is 2-4 cm long and 1-2.5 mm wide. He is smooth, colored, almost translucent, quite brittle and more or less pink. At the weak striegeligen stem base can be found ockerliche Myzelstränge. The membranous - thin, whitish flesh is watery and without noticeable odor. It tastes just as unremarkable mild.

Microscopic characteristics

The elliptical to apple core-shaped spores are 7-12 microns long and 3-4.5 microns wide. You are amyloid, smooth, more or less hyaline and partly contain droplets. The pleurocystidia are smooth and have at their head no excesses.

Artabgrenzung

The generally larger and more powerful Pink Radish Mycena ( Mycena rosea) is colored like pink, but has a distinct smell of radish.

Ecology

The pink -edged helmet Ling occurs in species-rich mixed mountain forests of spruce, in acidophilous spruce-fir and spruce forests, as well as in spruce and pine forests. Under conifers can also find him in deciduous and mixed forests. The helmet Ling is a Streuzersetzer, which is often as sown to find droves and lying twigs and in the needle litter between mosses. The fungus likes fresh to moist soils, which may be alkaline to acidic. He is equally before on lime - silicate- like over -rich ground.

The helmet Ling grows primarily under spruce, rarely it is found in pine and even rarer among fir trees. The fruiting bodies appear from late August to November with a peak in October. Particularly common are they after the first night frost.

Dissemination

The fungus is found in North America (Canada, USA) and Europe. He is meridional spread to boreal, but has a pronounced boreal - montane distribution area. In Europe, it has been demonstrated in the south in Spain, Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece and Ukraine, in the west of France and the UK and throughout Central Europe ( Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Hungary, Germany, Czech Republic, Poland). From Eastern Europe, there is evidence from Russia and Belarus, as well as from Estonia in the north- east. The helmet Ling is spread throughout Fennoscandia, Finland extends its range northward to the Arctic Circle.

In Germany, the helmet Ling occurs mainly in the mountainous coniferous forests of the Alps and the highlands, but here it can be site often.

Importance

The pink -edged helmet Ling is not edible mushroom.
