Brown roll-rim
Paxillus involutus
The brown roll-rim is a mushroom with a brown, funnel-shaped cap whose edge is strongly rolled inwards. Its gills run down the stem and peel off easily. It was once gathered in parts of Europe, but it was found that repeated eating can make the immune system attack red blood cells, a reaction that can be fatal.
Where it's found
Broadleaf and conifer woods and grass in late summer and autumn, partnering many kinds of trees.
Distribution
Widespread across the Northern Hemisphere, including eastern Anatolia in Turkey; introduced to Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and South America.
