A group of 6 specimens growing at the base of a European linden tree. Looks like an unusual species with light yellow caps that are ochraceous in the center. The cut context eventually stained reddish-brown, but the intensity was weak and discoloration was mostly restricted to the stipe and the juncture with the cap. The odor was strong, sweet and somewhat pleasant -- cannot really describe it, but possibly anise/licorice?? KOH stained cap surface yellow; the reaction was still yellow but much paler on stipe surface and context. The largest/oldest specimen had a 10.5 cm wide cap and a 6.6 cm long stipe; the stipe was uniformly clavate, 1.5 cm wide at the apex and 2.5 cm wide at the base/bulb. The gills were 5-6 mm wide. The partial veil didn't leave a distinct annulus on the stipe, just some torn fragments and a "zone"; the cap margins were heavily appendiculate. The bulbs were decorated with a few concentric zones of appressed floccose-fibrillose material that stained brown.
