Scattered to gregarious in soil in coast live oak forests (Quercus agrifolia); fruiting from fall to winter, common Sonoma County southward.

Cortinarius glutinosoarmillatus can be distinguished from most other species with glutinous cap and stipe because the stipe is girdled with bands of white, membranous veil remnants that darken to ochraceous in age. The cap is variable in color, with a brown to reddish brown disc, and a paler cream, ochraceous, or orangish brown margin. Young gills are bluish gray to violet but become rusty brown in age from spore maturation. Cortinarius collinitus shares the girdled stipe but lacks violet shades in young gills and is associated with conifers rather than live oak.
