The Fenugreek milkcap

"Lactarius helvus" is a member of the large milkcap genus "Lactarius" in the order Russulales. Fruiting bodies can be found in "Sphagnum" moss in coniferous and deciduous woodland in Europe, and possibly North America, although considerable debate continues about the North American variety, formerly referred to as Lactarius aquifluus.
