Cedrus deodara
"Tricholoma album" is found across Europe, the fruit bodies appearing between August and December, in association with oak ("Quercus") trees, with which they form a mycorrhizal relationship. Experiments have demonstrated that inoculating blue pine ("Pinus wallichiana") and deodar ("Cedrus deodara") seedlings with the fungus increases plant height and shoot and root biomass. The mushroom can be encountered growing in sizeable fairy rings. The presence of the mushroom in North America has not been confirmed. It has been reported from India in 2010.
