Lichenomphalia umbellifera or the green-pea mushroom lichen[2] is a species of agaric fungus in the Hygrophoraceae (mushroom lichen) family. It is regarded as nonpoisonous.[3]

The mushroom is yellowish-tan and hygrophanous, and occurs throughout most of the year on damp soil and rotting wood. It can be found in the Northern Hemisphere, particularly in the region of the Arctic.[4] Its cap grows up to 3 cm wide. Its stalk is 1–3 cm tall and 1–3 mm wide. The spores are white or yellowish.[5]

Taxonomy[]

The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753 as Agaricus umbelliferus.[6] It was transferred to Lichenomphalia in 2002.[7]

Similar species[]

Similar species include Chromosera cyanophylla, Chrysomphalina aurantiaca, Chrysomphalina chrysophylla, Contumyces rosellus, and Rickenella fibula.[5]
