Cystodermella cinnabarina is a

deciduous forests throughout the world. Prior to 2002, this species belonged to genus Cystoderma
, subsection Cinnabarina, under the name Cystoderma cinnabarinum which is still sometimes applied. Another often used synonym is Cystoderma terreyi.

Taxonomy

The species was first described as Agaricus granulosus var. cinnabarinus by German botanist

Karsten, 1914),[5] and Cystoderma terreyi (Harmaja, 1978).[6]

Description

View of the cap, gills, and stem

The cap is hemispherical in shape at first, becoming convex and finally flat with maturity, and reaching a diameter of up to 8 cm (3.1 in). The cap cuticle is cinnabar, brick-red or rusty orange and densely covered with fine granules. The flesh is white to pallid, with a mild fungoid taste and barely discernible smell. The gills are white to cream, dense and emarginate or adnate. A finely cottony partial veil covers the gills in immature specimens, tearing away to leave behind a delicate ring. The stem is white above the ring, and scaly below, with dark orange squamules. The stem is up to 6 cm (2.4 in) tall and 1.5 cm (0.6 in) in diameter, sometimes bulbous in the base and hollow.

Microscopic characteristics

The

cystidia that are present on the edges of gills, which in this species are spear-shaped. This microscopic feature may be used to help distinguish it from the similar-coloured C. adnatifolia[9] and C. granulosa, which also bear non-amyloid spores, but lack cystidia.[8]

Species of

amyloid reaction—all Cystodermella species show a negative reaction (spores remain colourless).[10]

Habitat and distribution

Cystodermella cinnabarina is found fruiting in

Edibility

Cystodermella cinnabarina has been variously described as inedible,[11][13] though harmless,[15] and even edible[7][16] regionally, for example, in Hong Kong.
