Areas of growth of sticky limacella.
Limacella sticky grows in deciduous forests, sometimes found in coniferous forests, also in parks and gardens. This type of mushroom is rare. They are widespread in the temperate climate of Europe, the Far East, Japan, and North America. We have sticky limacells found in the Leningrad, Moscow regions and in the Primorsky Territory. Fruiting is observed from July to October.
Evaluation of the edibility of limacella sticky.
Although gummy limacella is classified as an edible type of mushroom, it is a rare species, and its properties have been little studied, therefore it is recommended to refrain from collecting it. In folk medicine, this type is not used.
Similar species with adhesive limacella.
Drip limacella looks like its relative, but it has a larger size, and its cap is lighter. This limacella is edible too. Her hat is thick-fleshed, rounded or flat-convex in shape, the edges are uneven. The color of the cap is brown-yellow. The skin is bare and slimy. The pulp is thick, with a pleasant flour smell and taste, white. At the base, the leg is thickened, at first solid, and later hollow, whitish in color. Above the ring, the leg is covered with transparent drops.
Dripping limacella grows in moist forests. These mushrooms love rich soil. You can find them among leaf litter or moss. This species is rarely found, it comes across in some places. Fruiting from July to October.
Limacella tender also has an external resemblance to adhesive limacella, but its smell is weak, and the cap does not fade over time. The edibility of this species has not been studied. Her cap is hemispherical at a young age, later it becomes flat-convex. The cap is covered with a gelatinous mucous, smooth skin, yellowish or brown in color. The pulp is white, turns reddish at the cut. The stem is cylindrical, whitish, yellowish below the ring with flaky scales.
Limacella grows tender in deciduous and coniferous forests, comes across in greenhouses. This species is rare. Fruiting occurs from July to October.

Description of Limacella adhesive
Limacella sticky is a genus of mushrooms of the subgenus Agaricales of the amanita family. Although the limacella is sticky and belongs to the fly agaric, it is considered an edible species.
The cap is 2.5-8 cm, first in the form of a sphere, then convex, flat, often with irregular, wavy edges, with individual mucous flakes. The surface is smooth or fine-grained. The dark skin is reddish-brown in color, fading to pinkish over time. The middle is often darker.
The plates are multiple, free, snow-white in young and with a yellowish tint in old age.
The leg is cylindrical, 4-10 cm long and 5-10 cm in diameter, more or less even, with shaggy reddish-brown spots and scales with indeterminate patterns. Narrowed upwards, sometimes slightly thickened at the root, whole, the surface is corporal or beige, glossy above the ring, below it is covered with felt fragments in the form of flakes, which in small mushrooms are membranous or slimy after rain. Sometimes with an ephemeral annular zone, whitish under the cap.
A ring of uniform tone with a color of the leg, fibrous, in the form of a film with flakes, it can disappear or slide down the legs.
Volvo, as such, no.
The pulp is white, with a pink-brown color, fragile, smell and taste like flour.
Spores are oval, smooth, hyaline, 3.5-5 × 3.5-4.7 microns, almost transparent.
The color of limacells is highly dependent on the weather and growing conditions.

Limacella coated (Limacella illinita)
Actual name: Limacella illinita (Fr.) Maire (1933)
Description
Hat: average size 3-10 centimeters in diameter, variations from 2 to 15 cm are possible. Ovate, hemispherical in youth, conical, then almost prostrate, with a small tubercle. The edges of the cap are thin, almost translucent. Remnants of a mucous veil may hang along the edge. The color is white, gray, whitish, light brownish or light cream. It is darker in the central part. The surface of the cap of the smeared limacella is smooth, very sticky or slimy. Very slimy in wet weather.
Plates: adherent with a tooth or loose, frequent, wide, white or pinkish, with plates.
Leg: 5 - 9 centimeters high and up to 1 cm in diameter. Looks a bit disproportionately tall compared to the hat. Central, even or slightly tapering towards the cap. Whole, becomes loose, hollow with age. The color of the leg is whitish, brownish, the same color as the cap or slightly darker, the surface is sticky or slimy.
Ring: a pronounced ring, customary, in the form of a "skirt", no. There is a weakly expressed mucous "annular zone", more distinguishable in young specimens. Above the annular zone, the leg is dry, below it is mucous.
Flesh: thin, soft, white.
Taste: not different (no particular taste). Smell: perfumery, sometimes powdery is indicated.
Spore powder: white Spores: 3.5-5 (6) x 2.9 (4) -3.8 (5) microns, ovoid, broadly ellipsoid or nearly round, smooth, colorless.
Ecology
Limacella oily (coated) grows in forests of all types, it is found in fields, on lawns or on roadsides, swamps, meadows and sand dunes. Grows on the ground or litter, scattered or in groups, not infrequently.
Season and distribution
Occurs in summer and autumn, from June-July to the end of October. The peak of fruiting occurs in August - September. Smeared limacella is widespread in North America, European countries, and Russia. In some regions, the species is considered quite rare, in some it is found often, but does not attract special attention of mushroom pickers.
Edibility
Information is extremely contradictory, from "inedible" to "edible mushroom category 4". According to literary sources, it can be eaten fried, after preliminary boiling. Suitable for drying
We will carefully place this limacella in the category of conditionally edible and remind our dear readers: take care of yourself, do not experiment with mushrooms about the edibility of which there is no reliable information
Variability
Smeared limacella is a rather variable species. 7 varieties are indicated:
- Limacella illinita f. illinita
- Limacella illinita f. ochracea - with a predominance of brownish shades
- Limacella illinita var. argillacea
- Limacella illinita var. illinita
- Limacella illinita var. ochraceolutea
- Limacella illinita var. ochraceorosea
- Limacella illinita var. rubescens - "Reddening" - in places of damage, with a simple touch to the cap or leg, on the break and cut, the flesh turns red. At the base of the stem, the color turns reddish.
Morphology
Fruit bodies caps, central, small and medium-sized. The types of development are bivelangiocarpous or pileocarpous. From kind Amanita It differs mainly in the absence of volva and flakes on the cap, in the structure of the ring or in the presence of a mucous blanket.
Hat thick-fleshed, bell-shaped or hemispherical, later opens to a wide-conical, plano-convex or prostrate, smooth or toothed edge. A bump in the center may or may not be present. The surface is sticky or slimy.
Pulp usually white, dense, with a flour smell.
Lamellar hymenophore, plates are loose, poorly adherent or with colarium, frequent, white, there are plates.
Leg cylindrical, can be with an expanded or tuberous base, made or with cavities, with a mucous, sticky or dry surface.
Remains of bedspreads: Volvo is absent, the ring is fibrous, cortical, well pronounced or slimy, quickly disappears.
Spore powder White, disputes round to ovoid, smooth or slightly scabrous, non-amyloid or pseudo-amyloid, not cyanophilic.
Trama plates are initially bilateral, with age it becomes inverted or irregular. Pleuro- and cheilocystids are absent.
Similarity to other mushrooms
Limacella sticky is a rather unusual mushroom. Difficulties arise when determining the species, because outwardly the mushroom combines the features of various families - spiderwebs, lepiots, ryadovki and even hygrophors, and the hat is similar to an oil can. Most similar to gummy limacella:
- wine-red limacella - the same look, but with a rich burgundy note, without spots;
- tied rowing - a species tied to coniferous trees. It looks like a limacella with a sticky color of a cap with a reddish-pink tint, whitish plates and pulp. The flakes on the leg are the same as those of the limacella sticky. However, the ryadovka tied up is larger and more massive, the top of the head is strewn with large, tight membranous scales, and it cannot be slippery. The ryadovka has much denser and more elastic flesh and no orange spots on the legs;
- slimy cobweb is another, often found, representative of coniferous forests, it is easy to confuse it with sticky limacella. Mushrooms are of the same size, both have brownish-red and slimy tops of the heads. The edges of small cobwebs are snotty, like limacella sticky;
- belted webcap - differs in lilac color of the snotty top on the leg. Like limacella, it is a rare species.
