Cantharellales

Golden Chanterelle ( Cantharellus cibarius )

The chanterelle -like ( Cantharellales ) are an order large fungi from the class Agaricomycetes.

Features

The chanterelle -like include species with hat-shaped or irregular coral - to club-shaped fruiting bodies. The hymenophore can be smooth (round fungus relatives) as lamella -like strips ( Leist compacts) or spines ( stubble fungal relatives). A veil is not available.

Some members of the order, especially from the family of chanterelle relatives, are similar at first glance, the very mushroom -like ( Agaricales ). Like these, they have a hat, usually with a central stalk and lamellar -like strips. But the latter are only bulges unlike true lamellae. The Chanterelle relatives and the depressions between the ridges of the fruit layer ( hymenium ) are covered, while the mushroom -like possess a hymenium only on the surface of the lamellae.

Ecology

The strips fungi usually live saprobiontisch or mycorrhizal with trees, some live facultative parasites, obligate parasites occur only a few.
