Hydnum umbilicatum, commonly known as the depressed hedgehog, [3] is a species of tooth fungus in the family Hydnaceae. It was scientifically described in 1902 from New York by American mycologist Charles Horton Peck. [4] It is found in eastern North America. It is edible [3] [5] and good. [6]
Hydnum umbilicatum has been found to be associated with pines. [7]
Can be confused with Hydnum repandum, also known as the Wood Hedgehog. These two can be distinguished by their size and distribution, with H. repandum being a much larger species found in Europe.
