Where to look: saffron milkcap

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. When cut, it produces orange latex that slowly develops greenish tones. This is a useful feature, but do not taste unknown milkcaps as an identification test. Several related Lactarius species can look similar.
