Hygrophorus chrysodon

Hygrophorus chrysodon, commonly known as the flaky waxy cap, or gold flecked woodwax is a species of fungus in the genus Hygrophorus. It is edible but bland in taste. The species is found throughout the Northern Hemisphere.

The specific epithet chrysodon is Greek for 'golden tooth', a reference to the species' gold-hued granules or hairs, which are found on the cap (especially near the edge), stipe, and gills.

Description
The caps reach 4–14 cm, with gills subdecurrent to decurrent. The fruit bodies are white, sometimes with a tinge of yellow.
