Craterellus atrocinereus, commonly known as the black chanterelle[1] or California black chanterelle, is a species of edible fungus native to western North America.[2] This uncommon species is a mycorrhizal associate of live oak, tanoak, and Oregon white oak in Oregon[3] and northern California, where it is found most often in the vicinity of Monterey Bay.[1] This species has a "fruity-cheesy" odor, and fruits in winter and spring.[1] This bluish-gray to black chanterelle was previously considered to be Craterellus cinereus but was recognized as a distinct species in 2015.[3][4] The specific name is a nod to C. cinereus, with the Latin prefix atro meaning dark and cinereus (akin to cinders) referring to its smoky gray coloration.[5]
