Multifurca furcata

Lactarius furcatus Coker 1918 Multifurca furcata is a rare mushroom-forming fungus in the genus Multifurca.

It was originally described as a Lactarius species in 1918[2] and was moved to the new genus Multifurca in 2008.

[3] With the genus Lactarius it shares the exudation of milk-like latex; however, it is microscopically and molecularly distinct.

[3] It has been found very infrequently, with currently known localities in the United States, Mexico, Costa Rica, and China.
