===Similar species=== In North America it can be confused with poisonous western jack o'lanterns, edible chanterelle mushrooms, false chanterelles (''Hygrophoropsis aurantiaca''), ''Crepidotus'', or ''Phyllotopsis''.<ref name="Arora1986" />
==Habitat== It grows on conifer wood and in lignin-rich humus.<ref name="Arora1986" />
==Toxicity== Despite its pleasant taste, the species is poisonous.<ref name="Miller 20062">{{cite book|last=Miller Jr.|first=Orson K.|title=North American Mushrooms: A Field Guide to Edible and Inedible Fungi|last2=Miller|first2=Hope H.|publisher=FalconGuide|year=2006|isbn=978-0-7627-3109-1|location=Guilford, CN|page=288|author-link=Orson K.

==Potential uses== Atromentin is a phenolic compound. The first enzymes in its biosynthesis have been characterised in ''T. panuoides''.<ref>Characterization of the atromentin biosynthesis genes and enzymes in the homobasidiomycete ''Tapinella panuoides''.
