Where to look: chanterelle

A field over the measurement network. The colour here is for the leading species at each point, not for this one; a per-species layer is computed for one region so far.

About the species. Edible when correctly identified and cooked. Look carefully at the underside of the cap. Chanterelles have thick, blunt, forked ridges that run down the stem; they do not have thin, blade-like true gills. Several other yellow or orange mushrooms can be confused with them.

A regional boundary means nothing to a mushroom, and the next region is sometimes closer than the far side of your own. The index is for today.
