Cortinarius collinitus, commonly known as the belted slimy cortinarius, is a species of fungus in the family Cortinariaceae.
Description The cap is in diameter, convex to flat in shape, with a sticky, gelatinous surface (in moist conditions). The gills are adnexed, close, and pallid or pale violet in color. The stipe is typically 5–15 cm long, 0.5–2 cm thick, solid and equal. It has transverse scaly-looking bands. The spore print is rusty-brown, like that of most Cortiniarius species.
The species is considered inedible, partly due to the complex of related species not yet having been tested.
Habitat and distribution It grows singly or in groups with hardwoods and conifers.
