Ringless Honey Mushroom also known as Armillaria tabescens

The Ringless Honey Mushroom is distinguished by the golden-yellow to brown color with small dark brown hairs. The A. tabescens is common In NC and other Southeastern States. As a Saprophytism this mushroom breaks down and decomposes wood. Here this cluster was found on mulch(decomposing wood). As a decomposer the mushroom breaks down the lignin in wood by producing an enzyme in the house and release nutrients to the soil.
