A Google image search says 'yes'! I don't know what 'girolles' are in
English. And there are some tiny little yellow fungi which I don't think
I've seen used in England.

Girolles are Cantharellus cibarius, which we in this country mistakenly
call 'chanterelles'.

The Collins-Robert French-English dictionary (the big one) gives
Chanterelle as the English for Girolle.

Maybe - but a chanterelle in France is Cantharellus infundibuloformis,
and the English hijacking the name is a case of mistaken identity - not
unusual where the english and mushrooms are concerned.

I've been studying mushrooms since 1950, and I admit with some shame
that it was only a few years ago that discovered the deception...
