Cantharellus is a genus of mushrooms, commonly known as chanterelles (/ ˌ ʃ æ n t ə ˈ r ɛ l /), a name which can also refer to the type species, Cantharellus cibarius. They are mycorrhizal fungi, meaning they form symbiotic associations with plants. Chanterelles may resemble a number of other species, some of which are poisonous.
One of several species called "chanterelle", Cantharellus cibarius Chanterelles on sale in San Francisco. Chanterelle is the common name of several species of fungi in the genera Cantharellus, Craterellus, Gomphus, and Polyozellus. They are orange, yellow or white, meaty and funnel-shaped.

[16] [17] The species grows in coniferous woods under spruce and fir, [14] and more frequently at higher ...
Along with Cantharellus cibarius (golden chanterelles) they are also a significant source of biologically active vitamin B12, containing 1.09–2.65 μg/100 g dry weight. [ 16 ] When dried, C. cornucopioides acquires black truffle notes; in this form it can be crumbled as a condiment.
Cantharellus cascadensis, commonly known as the cascade chanterelle or hybrid chanterelle, [2] is a fungus native to the Pacific Northwest region of North America. [3] It is considered a choice edible mushroom .
The three most common species, C. cornucopioides, C. lutescens and C. tubaeformis, are gathered commercially and, unlike Cantharellus, can be easily preserved by drying. Molecular phylogenetics have been applied to the problem of discriminating between Craterellus and Cantharellus genera.
