==Habitat==

The panther cap is an uncommon mushroom, which is found in both deciduous (especially beech) and coniferous woodland. It is rarely found in meadows throughout Europe and western Asia in late summer and autumn. It has also been recorded on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada as well as in South Africa, where it is thought to have been accidentally introduced with trees imported from Europe.

It is an ectomycorrhizal fungus, living in root symbiosis with a tree and deriving photosynthesised nutrients from it while providing soil nutrients in return.
