Entoloma ferruginans is an endemic mushroom of California in North America.
It smells distinctly like a chlorinated pool at the YMCA, thus the common name bleachy entoloma.
[1] E. ferruginans lives in mycorrhizal association with live oaks south of the San Francisco Bay.
[1] This mushroom was first described by Charles Horton Peck in 1895 from a type specimen collected under oak trees in Pasadena.
