Russula nuoljae is an agaricoid fungus currently typed by a single fruiting body, found in Nuolja in Northern Sweden.[1] Other specimens have been found, mainly in mountainous birch forests in Scandinavia.[1] Specimens have also been identified from Northern Alberta, although exclusively through DNA database matches.
R. nuoljae always exemplifies a white stem.[1] Spores are ochre-coloured, although the gills may appear white on younger mushroom caps.[1] The caps may grow to 110 mm in diameter.[1]
