Craterellus fallax is a species of "black trumpets" that occurs in Eastern North America. With a number of lookalikes in the genus, it is edible but not substantial.

Description

Craterellus fallax is grayish to blackish, skinny and 3–12 centimetres (1–4+1⁄2 in) tall. The inside is smooth and black when young, turning rough and gray with age. The flesh is brittle and grayish to blackish.[1]

The spore print is a pinkish yellow-orange.[1]

Similar species

In western North America, C. fallax is replaced by C. calicornucopioides.[1]

Craterellus fallax may be synonymous with the European species C. cornucopioides, which produces a white spore print.[2]: 391 [3]

A number of other species in the genus are similar.[1]

Distribution and habitat

The species occurs in Eastern North America.[1]

Ecology

C. fallax is mycorrhizal, forming associations with Tsuga and Quercus species, among others.[4]

Uses

It is a choice edible fungus,[5] although is not substantial.[6]
