parasiticus (Bull.) Quél.) Cap: 2-5 cm diameter, yellow olivaceous brown; surface finely felty. Tubular part: attached to the stem, with relatively wide pores; lemon yellow when young, later greenish yellow, finally greenish brown. Stem: cylindrical, slightly tapering at the end, often curved; yellowish, surface granulöse. Flesh: hard when young, but soon becoming soft, whitish, cream-yellow, colour not changing when cut; no typical scent, taste is slightly sour (acidulent). Life-strategy: earlier regarded as parasitic, recently considered rather a common association of mycorrhiza. Occurrences in Hungary, habitats: August-October, grows on common earthball (Scleroderma citrinum) in highly acidic deciduous forest, therefore it is regarded as an indicator species of acidic soils. Distribution, frequency: found all over Europe, but rare in its entire European range (KRIEGLSTEINER 2000). According to SINGER (1965) it occurs also in North America and Northern Africa. Hungarian red list category: 3. Justification: The highly acidic forests are scarce in our country, therefore the host species is also infrequent in Hungary. The species proposed for protection because its highly restricted habitats. Known Hungarian records: BABOS (1989): Sopron: inter Rigó-forrás et Kecske-patak (ad Scleroderma citrinum), Baláta-tó, Mátra: Parádóhuta, Mohoshegy. RlMÓCZI (1994): Uzsapuszta (ad Scleroderma citrinum), Soproni-hegység (ad Scleroderma citrinum). Rhodotuspalmatus (Bull.) Maire (Agaricales, Tricholomataceae) Cap: 3-7 cm in diameter, pink when young, later orange-rose, apricotcoloured, surface slightly pruinose, later marbled with a network pattern of wrinkles. Translucent because of a gelatinous layer under the skin.
