Honey flyfish

The hat reaches 2.5-10 cm in diameter, first broad-conical, with the edge turned up, then flattened with the edge down. The color of the young hats is dark brown, pale brown or pinkish, sometimes whitish along the edge, then yellowish brown or brown. The scales in the center of the hat are numerous, almost conical, fibrous, grayish-brown, closer to the edge - single, raised or lying, whitish or of the same color as the hat. In the center, the scales are usually preserved in adult mushrooms.

The plates are quite frequent, descending to the stem, whitish in young mushrooms, then acquiring a brownish tint.

The leg is usually cylindrical, with a club-like or bulbous thickening at the base, whitish above the ring, brownish or brown below, often grayish at the base, below the ring with scattered yellowish remains of the bedspread. The ring is fibrous or filmy, white, often with brownish scales along the edge, bursting star-shaped.

The pulp is whitish, with a faint or unpleasant cheese smell and astringent taste.

Spore powder is white. Spores 7.5-12 × 5-6.5 microns, elliptical-almond-shaped and elliptical. Four-spore basidia , 32–45 × 7.5–9 microns. Cheilocystids are usually regular in shape, club-shaped, cylindrical or fusiform. The cuticle of the cap is cutis .

It is considered edible. It is usually recommended to boil, as raw mushrooms have a pungent taste when they are fresh or undercooked.

One of the authors ^{[ who? ]} advises first to consume only a small portion, as some people may experience indigestion.

The taste with bitterness, the smell is "sweet", reminiscent of Camembert cheese.

• Armillaria cepistipes Velen. , 1920 - Onion- footed honey agar, or gray is very similar to thick-footed honey agaric, differs incorrectly (and not star-shaped) by a tearing ring on the stalk, weakly expressed remnants of the cover on the stalk (in A. lutea - pubescent-fibrous, remaining), rather quickly disappearing scales in the center of the cap (in the thick-legged, they are usually washed off only closer to the edge) and a pleasant mushroom (rather than cheese) smell. The bluish-gray color forms of the gray wattle are known; such a coloration does not occur in a thick-legged.

Chaffinch is a saprophyte most often growing on fine foliage or decaying stumps, less often a parasite of dying trees. Sometimes grows together with Armillaria cepistipes , A. solidipes and A. borealis .

It prefers beech and spruce wood, less commonly found on fir and ash or other trees. A. cepistipes is very rare on coniferous wood.
