Cortinarius armillatus, commonly known as the Red-banded Cortinarius is a late summer and fall (as late as in October) fungus usually found in moist coniferous forests, especially spruced ones. The species gowns rarely in North America, but is common in Europe.

The cap is bell shaped at first, later flattening out, vividly rust-brown becoming slightly paler with age, with small fibrous scales. The cap grows from 5 to 15 cm in diameter. The gills are dark rust-brown; broad, distant and shallowly sinuate. The spores are also rust-brown. The flesh is light brown.

Use

The fruiting body is not toxic, nor the taste delicious, but it's not recommended to eat if one doesn't identify web caps.

When dyeing cloths, without added metals, it discharges pink, with tin yellow, with copper green and with iron olivic dyes.
