Spider web (Cortinarius armillatus) mufananidzo uye tsananguro

Cobweb bracelet, (lat. Cortinarius bracelet) imhando yefungus yerudzi rweCobweb (Cortinarius) yemhuri yeCobweb (Cortinariaceae).

Ngowani:

Diameter 4-12 cm, neat hemispherical shape in youth, gradually opens with age, passing through the “cushion” stage; in the center, as a rule, a wide and obtuse tubercle is preserved. The surface is dry, orange to red-brown in color, covered with darker villi. Along the edges, remnants of a red-brown cobweb cover are often preserved. The flesh of the cap is thick, dense, brownish, with a musty smell characteristic of cobwebs and without much taste.

Rekodhi:

Adherent, wide, relatively sparse, gray-cream in youth, only slightly brownish, then, as the spores mature, become rusty-brown.

Spore powder:

Husty brown.

Gumbo:

Height 5-14 cm, thickness – 1-2 cm, somewhat lighter than the cap, slightly expanded towards the base. A characteristic feature is the bracelet-like remains of a cobweb cover (cortina) of a red-brown color covering the leg.

Paradzira:

The cobweb is found from the beginning of August until the end of the “warm autumn” in forests of various types (obviously, on poor acidic soils, but not a fact), forming mycorrhiza with both birch and, possibly, pine. Settles in damp places, along the edges of swamps, on hummocks, in mosses.

Mhando dzakafanana:

Cortinarius armillatus is one of the few easily identifiable cobwebs. A large fleshy hat covered with brown scales and a leg with characteristic bright bracelets are signs that will not allow an attentive naturalist to make a mistake. A very poisonous beautiful cobweb (Cortinarius speciosissimus), they say, it looks like it, but only experienced specialists and a few victims have seen it. They say he is smaller, and his belts are not so bright.
