Armillaria ostoyae (synonym A. solidipes) is a pathogenic species of fungus in the family Physalacriaceae. It has decurrent lamella (mushroom gills), and the mushroom stalk (stipe) has a annulus (ring). The mycelium invades the sapwood of trees, and is able to disseminate, like little entangled strings, over great distances under the bark or between trees in the form of black mycelial cord (rhizomorphs). In most areas of North America, A. ostoyae can be distinguished from other Armillaria species by its cream-brown colors, prominent cap scales, and a well-developed ring.
The species grows and spreads primarily underground, such that the bulk of the organism is not visible from the surface. In the autumn, the subterranean parts of the organism bloom "honey mushrooms" as surface fruits. Low competition for land and nutrients often allow this fungus to grow to huge proportions, and it possibly covers more total geographical area than any other single living organism. It is common on both hardwood and conifer wood in forests west of the Cascade Range in Oregon.
