Cinnabar Chanterelle

The cinnabar chanterelle (Cantharellus cinnabarinus) is a striking mushroom in the family Cantharellaceae, found primarily in eastern North America, from New England and the Great Lakes states south to the Gulf Coast, with records also from parts of Central America and the Caribbean. It is distinguished by its vivid cinnabar-red to orange-red coloration throughout—cap, false gills, stipe, and flesh—making it one of the most visually distinctive North American fungi. It grows in mycorrhizal association with deciduous trees, particularly oaks and beeches, in humid hardwood forest during summer and autumn. The cap is typically 2–5 centimeters across, wavy-edged, and funnel-shaped at maturity. Like other chanterelles, the cinnabar chanterelle has false gills—blunt, forking ridges rather than true blade-like gills—which is a diagnostic feature of the genus. The species is classified as Least Concern. It is edible and considered flavorful, though smaller than the golden chanterelle (Cantharellus cibarius) and thus less commercially significant. Populations are dependent on intact oak and beech woodland, and the species benefits from the conservation of eastern North American deciduous forest. Some authorities also recognize this species in parts of Mexico and Guatemala, suggesting a broader range.
