Description
The flesh turns pale red when cut, but doesn't turn black unlike Russula nigricans. The species was named by Japanese mycologist Tsuguo Hongo in 1955. The name was formerly applied to the North American fungus Russula eccentrica in California. It has been reclassified as Russula cantharellicola, where it grows in association with coast live oak (Quercus agrifolia) trees in California oak woodland habitats.
