| comment | "The motivation for this mushroom name is not quite clear. Machek is inclined to see two possibilities: the mushroom got this name because the lower part of its cap is yellow, and also because in former times these mushrooms were used for oiling wheels. Supposedly the mushroom could get this name due to its cap which is covered with a sticky film, as if it were covered with oil" | |
