Notes
Review Comments There are a number of similar blackening Russulas. Some turn black directly and others may turn red and then black. Some caps are viscid and some are dry. This species was identified as Russula nigircans but the gills appear to be too close together. Most likely it is Russula adusta - but there are other possibilities.
