Can you make the etymology a little more explicit? (I.e., say that Alnus = alder and cola = inhabitant).

"Cap martin (edge of the cap)"—is the gloss necessary?

Probably not, but I was asked to gloss it once before, and have been glossing ever since. I'll try unglossing for this one and see what happens. Sasata (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"with matted fibrils beneath the gluten near the margin"—please explain

Done. Sasata (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"central and Californian population"—don't you mean "central Californian"?

central and southern, fixed. Sasata (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"slowly stains pale yellow"—when? Does it become yellow in maturity or when you do something to the fungus?

CLarified. Sasata (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"nominate subspecies"—wouldn't that be the nominate variety?

Yup. Sasata (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So how can we distinguish it from Catharellus cibarius?

Baja California is not in the United States (I corrected this).

My last geography class was in grade 8. It's obvious sometimes. Sasata (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Should the lead mention that it may also form associations with non-conifers, like oaks and alders?

Done. Sasata (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

India is a big place, so I think you should mention the state. Are there no data on ecological associations there?

Added state, no other data at this time. Sasata (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
