Biology:Aphroditeola
Aphroditeola is an agaric fungal monotypic genus that produces pink cantharelloid fruit bodies on coniferous forest floors. The lamellae are forked and typically the fruit bodies have a fragrant odor described as candy-like, cinnamon-like or pink bubble gum-like. It contains the one species Aphroditeola olida, which is commonly known as the pink bubblegum mushroom.[1]
Etymology
The name Aphroditeola is an allusion to Aphrodite Greek goddess because of the combination of pretty pink coloration and perfume-like odor.[2] The specific epithet (olida) is from the Latin olidus, meaning "smelling" or "rank". In some literature it is known as Hygrophoropsis morganii based on the earlier classification and the incorrect presumption that the type species was named Cantharellus morganii before the name Cantharellus olidus.[3]
