Typus: France: Doubs: Forêt du Chailluz , Quercus spp. and Carpinus betulus, 16 Oct. 2000, T. G. FrØslev & T. S. Jeppesen, TSJ2000-085 ( C - holotypus).
Pileus 38–65 mm, hemispherical then plano-convex, glabrous, glutinous, margin yellow (2A4–2A5), towards centre soon becoming more or less brown (6D6–6D7–7D7). Lamellae emarginate, greyish violet (17A2–17A2), most coloured towards the edge. Stipe 40– 60 X 8–15 mm, with a marginate bulb (– 35 mm), whitish, sometimes with a fugacious violaceous tinge in the upper part. Bulbipellis and mycelium white, bulb margin (veil) stains brown (6D6-6D7). Context whitish. Taste mild and smell neutral to slightly earth-like. Spores narrowly amygdaliform to slightly citriform with narrow apex, with coarse ornament, 9.5–10(–10.5) X 5.5–6.5 µm, average 10.1 ± 0.3 X 5.7 ± 0.3 µm; Q ¼ 1.77 ± 0.10.
Chemical reactions: KOH on pileipellis brick-red (9C8) to red brown (9E8) within 60 s, darkest on centre, on bulbipellis pastel red (9A4–9A5), in context negative to very weak rose.
Habitat: Frondose forests with Fagus sylvatica, Carpinus betulus and Quercus spp. At the type locality we also found C. nymphicolor , C. arcuatorum , C. citrinus and C. xanthophyllus .
Observations/Discussion: C. chailluzii is recognised by the bright yellow pileus margin, which contrasts the brown centre, recalling the oxidation seen in several fulvoid species, and distinguishing it from C. cisticola , which has a more uniformly coloured pileus. Other similar species have either a negative reaction (C. calochrous, C. ochraceopallescens etc.) or an intense pink KOH reaction ( C. catharinae ) on the bulbipellis. Microscopically, it occupies an intermediate position ( Figs 2 View Fig 2 and 3B View Fig 3 ), and with the limited knowledge of its variation it might be difficult to separate from several others on microscopy alone. Presently, we only know this species from two collections including the type. The collection published under the name C. caroli in Consiglio et al. (2004) has an identical ITS sequence and morphology and represents the second record of this species. (For a discussion of the binomial C. caroli see the discussion under C. cisticola .) The species is named after the forest where we first found it, Forêt du Chailluz, in Doubs, France. As we have only encountered the species once ourselves among many hundred collections of calochroid species, it seems probable that the species is very rare in the investigated area. An ITS sequence from the holotype of C. chailluzii is available at GenBank (accession DQ323962 View Materials ).
Additional specimens examined: Italy: Emilia-Romagna: Bologna, Monterenzio , Ronchi , in mixed forest with Quercus pubescens and Q. cerris, 8 Oct. 1996, G. Consiglio & G. Spisni, 96216 (as C. caroli ) (hb. Consiglio).
