Description
Russulales are a diverse group of fungi often characterized by their brittle and crumbly texture, making them easy to identify. Many species in this group have vibrant cap colors, ranging from reds to yellows. Some can form symbiotic relationships with trees, supporting forest health by improving nutrient exchange. A unique trait of many russulales species is their tendency to release a large amount of latex or milky fluid when cut or broken.
