I do not think so. I know chanterelles well, at least Cantherellus cibarius and the White Chanterelle (I do not recall the species name atm (C. albidus(?)). I know there are black ones, but the gilled mushroom in the pics does not resemble any chanterelle in N. America, at least, I have ever seen. There is a chanterelle I have only read about in books called a Pig's Ear, but I couldn't recognize it in a lineup if it mugged me in broad daylight. I have not researched chanterelles in Eurasia, but I would be shocked were that a chanterelle. AFAIK all chanterelles have decurrent gills that extend from the cap margin down the stalk, at least slightly, and that first mushroom does not appear to have decurrent gills.
The bolete I am not familiar with, as the only bolete I can identify with confidence is B. edulis, which looks almost exactly like a hamburger bun from above in it's coloration. I am certain the bolete in your pics is not B. edulis, and neither is a chanterelle.
here there are both chanterelles and Fake chanterelles
left ones are True ones
so maybe mine is a Fake one:)
Yes. Both those species are familiar to me. I love chanterelles, and note they are never attacked by insects, which many other mushrooms are. I sometimes end up trimming most of a B. edulis away, for example, because it's so riddled with worms.
