Entoloma mammosum, commonly known as the bell-shaped Nolanea, is a species of fungus in the Entolomataceae family. The fruit bodies are small and nippled, with a striate cap, salmon-colored gills, and a stately stalk. It is typically found growing in feather moss under spruce and Jack pine in the summer and fall. It is saprobic, and derives nutrients from rotting organic matter.[1]:16,17
