Lactarius deterrimus |
| Lactarius deterrimus is a large milk cap with carrot-coloured gills and greenish tints as it matures. A distinctive feature is the latex ('milk), which changes from carrot-orange to dark red as it dries. Common in coniferous woodland, this species favours spruce and pine habitats. |
