Hygrophorus penarioides

Hygrophorus penarioides is a species of mushroom in the Hygrophoraceae.

Found in Sweden, it grows in a mycorrhizal association with oak trees.

It was formerly identified as Hygrophorus penarius, a similar species typically found in association with both beech and oak; analysis of internal transcribed spacer sequence data demonstrated that the species were different.
