Tricholoma sulphurescens is a medium-sized mushroom with a yellowish-brown to greenish-yellow cap, often with a metallic sheen, and white to yellowish gills. It has a strong, unpleasant odor, resembling sulfur or coal gas. In East and Central Texas, it typically fruits from summer to fall, often in association with oak trees, particularly live oak and post oak, in woodland areas and along roadsides. The stipe is usually yellowish to brownish, staining reddish-brown when bruised. This species can be found in a variety of habitats, including wooded slopes, ravines, and floodplains, where oak trees are dominant.
