The golden chanterelle (Cantharellus cibarius) is a funnel-shaped mushroom with a yellow to orange-yellow cap and descending ridges instead of true gills. The flesh is firm, with a mild fruity aroma. It grows in European coniferous and mixed woods, often in groups among moss and litter. Everyday “лисички” may cover related yellow Cantharellus; the catalog models a culinary product around C. cibarius, not a field identification guide.
Chanterelles are usually sautéed or stewed and used in sauces, with eggs, and as a side. Firm flesh holds shape when dry-fried. Drying and freezing are common storage methods; watery specimens spoil faster.

Smirnyakov 1992 (central oblasts): mass growth from late June, abundant mid-August to early September, mass through September; October only in a warm autumn. Gorlenko 1986 (middle belt): July–September. Start 1 July is the first month both calendars share; end 30 September. Matching Karelia at month level is independent source reading, not a copy of Shubin. No explicit peak (abundant decades are not frozen as day bounds). Leningrad and Voronezh are not copied.

Chanterelle. Shubin 1976, Petrozavodsk latitude: species July–October until frosts; not named in the short June layer; main 3rd layer from the 2nd decade of August, often peaking in September. Start 1 July and end 30 September are month-level normalization without November tails. Matching Moscow’s July–September window (Gorlenko/Smirnyakov) is independent compression of different handbooks to months, not a copied row. No explicit peak: weather variability outweighs false day precision. Moscow and Leningrad rows are not copied.

Chanterelle. Nizhnesvirsky Reserve 2015: June–October, very frequent; specimen 17 June 1988. Start 15 June; end 15 October. No explicit peak. One north-east reserve is not the whole oblast; the Karelian Isthmus is not covered. Shubin’s Karelian window and Moscow are not copied.
Mushroom-picker calendar for the central oblasts of European Russia (Smirnyakov, Koshcheev, 1992)
Smirnyakov Yu.I., Koshcheev A.K., Koshcheev A.A. — Sputnik gribnika
Appendix: decade calendar (May–October). Legend: 0 first fruiting bodies, “-” mass growth, х abundant fruiting, = warm autumn only. Does not name Moscow Oblast separately; “central oblasts” is the belt that includes it. A handbook, not a multi-year plot study.
Gorlenko M.V., Garibova L.V., Sidorova I.I. — Vsyo o gribakh
Monthly presence table (April–October) for the middle belt. Chanterelle VII–IX; porcini VI–X; birch bolete VI–IX; aspen bolete VI–X; autumn honey fungus IX–X (summer honey fungus is a separate VI–X row). No intra-month dates and no named oblast.
Mushrooms of the northern forests (Shubin, 1976): layers and months for Petrozavodsk latitude
Shubin V.I. — Griby severnykh lesov, 3rd ed., Petrozavodsk: Karelia
Layer calendar compiled for Petrozavodsk latitude (not Leningrad Oblast): 1st layer second half of June, short and few; 2nd 1st–2nd decades of July; 3rd from 2nd decade of August through October, often peaking in September. Same-book species accounts: chanterelle July–October; birch and aspen bolete June–October; true milk cap July–September (black milk cap separate); saffron milk cap July–October; autumn honey fungus abundant about two weeks, usually first half of September (1968 early August is an exception). Summer honey fungus June–August is not this product. Porcini is not modelled from this row (1986 monograph). Catalog morel (Morchella) uses a separate source row; April–May Gyromitra is not that product.
Macromycetes of Nizhnesvirsky Reserve (Stolyarskaya et al., 2015)
Zmitrovich I.V., Stolyarskaya M.V. et al.; ed. Stolyarskaya M.V. — St Petersburg, ISBN 978-5-4386-0925-4
Annotated list of 806 species, north-east Leningrad Oblast (Lodeynopolsky District, middle taiga), not the whole subject and not the Karelian Isthmus. Chanterelle June–October, very frequent; porcini and pine porcini June–October; birch bolete June–September, very frequent; aspen bolete July–September; northern honey fungus (Armillaria borealis) August–September, layer usually short; saffron milk cap August–October, rather rare (1993 plot layer 2–15 October); true milk cap July–September. Morel is rare; 28 June 1993 mass on a burn is not a typical oblast harvest. Shubin’s Karelian calendar and Moscow handbooks are not copied.
