Craterellus tubaeformis

The yellowfoot is a small mushroom, usually only a few inches tall. Its common names give away its key distinguishing feature: the stem (the mushroom’s “foot”) is bright yellow, its stem is hollow (like a tube), it’s funnel or trumpet-shaped, and it’s brightly colored (like a flame).

Yellowfoot mushrooms only grow from the ground or on decomposing logs; they never grow up trees or on solid logs. They grow in dense or scattered groupings across the forest floor, especially boggy, wet areas filled with lots of moss. The yellowfoot chanterelle is mycorrhizal (forms relationships with specific trees), with two species preferring conifers and one growing in association with hardwoods.
