$Russula sardonia, commonly known as the primrose brittlegill, is a mushroom of the genus Russula, which are commonly known as brittlegills. The fruiting body, or mushroom, is a reddish-purple, the colour of blackberry juice, and is found in coniferous woodland in summer and autumn. It is inedible, and like many inedible members of the genus, has a hot, peppery taste.\nDescription:\nThe cap grows to around 10 cm (4 in) in diameter. It is commonly purplish-red, but brownish, and greenish forms have been recorded. Usually it is darker in colour towards the middle, which is convex when young, but becomes depressed in the centre with age. The stem is occasionally white, but more commonly is flushed with pale purple-red, and has a grape-like; easily removed bloom. It is 3–8 cm tall and 1–1.5 cm in diameter. The adnexed to slightly decurrent gills are pale primrose yellow, and they darken with age. They are narrow, and exude water droplets when young.(see photograph left) They also turn slowly pink when ammonia is dropped onto them. This identifies the mushroom to species level, and is a ‘must do’ test for the rarer colour forms. The spore print is cream.[1] The flesh is firm, and has a very hot taste, making the mushroom inedible.\nDistribution and habitat:\nRussula sardonia appears in late summer and autumn; growing with Pinus (pine) in coniferous woodland, on sandy soils. It is a common mushroom, and is found across Britain, and Northern Europe. It does not occur in North America. \nEdibility:\nThis mushroom is inedible, and has a 'pepper hot' taste.

Russulaceae. There are some excellent edible mushrooms in the Russulaceae family, some of which can even be eaten raw. However, the family also includes inedible mushrooms, which can cause gastrointestinal upset. What's more, there are also some deadly toxic species in the Russulaceae family, such as *Russula subnigricans*. Ingestion of *Russula subnigricans* can cause very severe rhabdomyolysis, and this mushroom is a major culprit in mushroom poisoning in China and Japan. When you find these mushrooms, do not collect or eat them at random. If you experience discomfort after ingesting them, seek medical help as soon as possible.
