Pholiota limonella is a mushroom of the genus Pholiota. It is commonly found on fallen beech trunks and other hardwoods. It shares the same macroscopic features as P. adiposa and P. aurivella and can only be reliably distinguished from them based on spore size.

Its subspecies include P. abietis, P. connata, and P. subvelutipes. This mushroom is categorized as "not edible", but said to "taste mild" in Phillips (2010). However there was a project in Hubei of China trying to "tame" the mushroom for growing massively for food.
