Editing Cantharellus cibarius (section)

== Taxonomy ==
At one time, all yellow or golden chanterelles in North America had been classified as ''Cantharellus cibarius''. Using [[DNA analysis]], they have since been shown to be a group of related species known as the ''Cantharellus cibarius'' group or species complex, with ''C.&nbsp;cibarius sensu stricto'' restricted to Europe.<ref name=mushexp/><ref name=buyck2016/><ref name=thorn2017/> In 1997, ''[[Cantharellus formosus|C.&nbsp;formosus]]'' (the Pacific golden chanterelle) and ''C.&nbsp;cibarius'' var.
