Toxic. Fungus. Grows in forests and in conifers. Spore print yellow. Lives in symbiosis with tree roots: the fungus brings water and minerals, the tree feeds it sugars.

There are 5 observations of Upright Coral in Québec, mostly in Laurentides, Capitale-Nationale and Lanaudière, and it has been reported in 3 of the 17 regions. They peak in August and become rare from October to June.
