Remarks
and the Triumphant Cobweb - that's what stands before your eyes after several days of forest fermentation in mid-September. Milk in a basket, cobweb in the forest. I'll have to try the other way around somehow. It is interesting to get acquainted with the yellow cobweb from the culinary side, but, of course, it is not possible to collect both abundant mushrooms at the same time. We must choose.

Hat: Diameter 7-12 cm, hemispherical in youth, becoming cushion-shaped, semi-prostrate with age; along the edges, noticeable shreds of cobwebbed bedspread often remain. Color - orange-yellow, in the central part, as a rule, darker; the surface is sticky, although in very dry weather it may dry out. The flesh of the cap is thick, soft, white-yellowish in color, with an almost pleasant smell, not typical for cobwebs.

Hymenophore: The plates are slightly adherent, narrow, frequent, light cream in youth, changing color with age, acquiring a smoky, and then bluish-brown color. In young specimens, they are completely covered with a light cobweb cover.

Spore powder: Rusty brown.

Leg: Height 8-15 cm, thickness 1-3 cm, strongly thickened in the lower part when young, acquires a regular cylindrical shape with age. In young specimens, bracelet-like remains of cortina are clearly visible.

Spreading: It grows from mid-August to the end of September in deciduous foxes, forming mycorrhiza mainly with birch. Prefers dry places; can be considered a satellite of the black mushroom (). The place and time of the most intensive fruiting of these two species often coincide.

Similar species: The yellow cobweb is one of the easiest cobwebs to identify. However, there are indeed a lot of similar species. Cortinarius triumphans is classified only by a combination of features - starting from the shape of the fruiting body and ending with the time and place of growth. Often mixed with yellow cobweb, Cortinarius trivialis. It is a highly variable fungus and can in most cases be distinguished by the serpentine "net" on the leg.

Edibility: In foreign sources it goes by category inedible mushrooms; domestic authors hold a different opinion. SOUTH. Semenov in his book calls the yellow cobweb the most delicious cobweb.

Author's notes: Black mushroom and yellow cobweb - that's what stands before your eyes after several days of forest fermentation in mid-September. Milk in a basket, cobweb in the forest. I'll have to try the other way around somehow. It is interesting to get acquainted with the yellow cobweb from the culinary side, but, of course, it is not possible to collect both abundant mushrooms at the same time. We must choose.

Mushrooms growing in grassy nests are not easy to photograph. To do this, you need to have manicure scissors and a mighty tail with a large tassel to brush off moose flies. As a rule, I don’t have one or the other with me, which means that the photos come out the way they come out. These yellow cobwebs, however, are still lucky. You should have seen my pictures aspen mushrooms, abundantly growing in the neighborhood ...

I guess that I won’t have more friends from such a confession, but with these mushrooms (plus a dozen more - the same ones in the same place) I did the following. I collected them, took them home (fortunately not far - 50 meters), carefully studied, checked the information given in the reference book, and then carefully buried under a tall birch. And only then I was informed on the forum that gray records are a completely normal thing for Cortinarius triumphans. Thus the propensity for reinsurance led to an insulting neglect of the gifts of the forest.

The color of the plates - conveyed here quite convincingly - may raise some doubts about the species of this cobweb. However, if you give the fungus a chance, doubts will dissipate rather quickly: after a few days, the plates of Cortinarius triumphans acquire a dull clay shade, sung by researchers of the cobweb genus, and it finally ceases to resemble its close relatives.

The yellow cobweb is certainly beautiful - but with some special, impractical beauty. So it can be beautiful mokruha spruce or brick-red honey agaric. The discovery of the nest of Cortinarius triumphans does not evoke the predatory joy of accomplishment, affecting only the aesthetic feeling. Perhaps it is for this reason that we can find from time to time, in the autumn month of September, these large, bright and respectful mushrooms.

Sometimes, especially when there is a chance to evaluate Cortinarius triumphans against the background of other cobwebs, it becomes clear why this particular mushroom was called triumphal. However, as a rule, he does not cause real delight in a mushroom picker - sometimes because the peak of its fruiting falls on a very mushroom season, or even for some other reason - in particular, because few people need it as such.

Yellow cobweb - the mushroom is strong and strong; in the photo above, he competes with the stone. The stone is forced to move: Cortinarius triumphans justifies its name, giving a completely festive look to the half-abandoned forest road.

The presented variety of mushrooms grows in huge bulk. What does this mean for quiet hunters? Everything is quite simple - if you managed to find one specimen, nearby you will find another colony of sun-drenched mushrooms. Therefore, you will definitely not be left without a harvest. This variety is valued for taste qualities and row useful properties. They are loved not only by avid mushroom pickers, but also by true connoisseurs who know everything about the yellow cobweb.

Description

1. The top in diameter grows up to 10 cm. In young animals, it is made in the form of a hemisphere. With the passage of time and, as a result, the growth of the fungus, the hat becomes more even with some bulges. It is compared to a pillow. A kind of cobweb remains on the surface of the mushroom all the time.
2. The hat is pigmented with a golden yellow color with an admixture of brown. Orange blotches are noticed in the middle part, they become darker towards the edge of the surface. The soft part is compacted in structure, painted white-yellowish.
3. The plates are thin and practically not expressed. They are brown or cream in color. They become more brown as the mushrooms grow. The plates of older specimens are dull and rather dark.
4. As for the base, it grows up to 12 cm in height. It may be a little higher, but this is an average and often occurring value. The diameter of the leg fluctuates at around 2-3 cm. A seal is noticed in the lower part of the base, which disappears with age.
5. This species is allowed to be eaten. But opinions differ on this matter. Foreign experts rank the cobweb as unsuitable mushrooms for eating, while our compatriots collect it in full and harvest it for future use.

Workpiece Features

1. The presented species of the mushroom family has poisonous varieties. But this is not of the type under discussion, because it is eaten and used for medicinal purposes. If we consider, for example, an ocher or brown cobweb, then these mushrooms are used in the production of dyes.
2. The yellow representative of the species is classified as edible. It requires pre-treatment, which consists in long-term digestion with frequent changes of water. In the culinary world, this variety is successfully used for first / second courses, snacks, twists, etc.
3. Edible relatives are also excellent, watery blue, purple cobwebs. They are the most valuable, but there are others that are not useful. Experienced mushroom pickers give advice to beginners: do not pick these varieties if you are not sure.
4. As for the form of consumption of this species, they prefer to first boil it for a long time. This is followed by frying, stewing, spinning, pickling, salting and other manipulations that are closer to you.

Harm

1. Separately, it is worth mentioning that some types of the fruits of the bodies in question can be very dangerous and poisonous. The problem is that the signs of poisoning may appear after only a few days. In some cases, even weeks pass. The bottom line is that these mushrooms contain toxins that slowly poison a person.
2. Dangerous poison begins to have a detrimental effect on the kidneys. As a result, a person may eventually develop a disease in the form of acute interstitial nephritis. In rare cases, there may even be a fatal outcome due to irreversible changes in the structure of the kidneys. According to statistics, 30% of people do not survive poisoning.
3. Often the most common signs of poisoning with similar fruits are dryness and burning in the oral cavity. You may also experience nausea, vomiting, extreme thirst, and stomach cramps. In addition, poisoning is often accompanied by pain in lumbar and severe migraines.
4. Even if you pay attention to the symptoms of poisoning in time, professional treatment and subsequent recovery will be quite lengthy. In order not to encounter such a thing, you must definitely follow some rules.
5. Any mushroom picker knows that if doubts crept in whether the fruit is edible or not, it is better to classify it as conditionally poisonous. You shouldn't rip it off. Cobweb collection is best left to professional mushroom pickers. Only experts can accurately distinguish poisonous mushroom from edible.

Most mushroom pickers bypass the yellow cobwebs. This is because during such a period there are many edible fruiting bodies that cannot be confused with poisonous ones. As for edibility, they cook it quite rarely. The considered fruits require special preparatory measures. You should not collect and try such mushrooms if you are not a professional mushroom picker.

Number. In 2010, the species was observed at 2 closely spaced points among several tens of fruiting bodies (2).

Features of growth. Mycorrhizal symbiont of birch, pine and probably some other trees (1). Perhaps confined to damp and mossy places, which is why it is also called a bog. In Moscow, it was found on a low-grass forest edge, moderately disturbed by recreation, in a sparse and relatively dry middle-aged birch forest, where the proximity of a transitional swamp can only be expressed in abundant dew (2). It looks like poisonous types of cobwebs and is practically not going to.

limiting factors. For the region as a whole - not clear (1). In Moscow, in addition, there is a limited area of ​​short-grass dampish and relatively dry birch forests located near water-divided swamps (3).

Security measures taken. Known habitats of the species are located in protected areas - in the PP "Valley of the river Skhodnya in Kurkino".

View state changes. On the territory of Moscow, the species was recorded for the first time and is included in KR 2.

Necessary measures for the conservation of the species. Search for other locations of the species. Registration of known and newly identified places of its growth for registration and special protection. Preservation of watershed swamps and birch forests near them in their natural state.
