intro |
Olive text indicates a specimen that has not been
thoroughly examined (for example, for microscopic details) and marks other places in the text
where data is missing or uncertain. The following material is based upon original research by R. E. Tulloss. | ||||||||
pileus | 86 - 102 mm wide, brownish gray (5D3) over disc, paler toward margin, faintly virgate, umbonate, subshiny, tacky; context white, brownish in disc both under pileipellis and just above stipe, 8 - 9 mm thick, thinning evenly up to 10 mm from margin, then membranous, with central cavity of stipe extending into this context about one half of thickness of pileus; margin striate (0.1 - 0.15R), nonappendiculate; universal veil absent. | ||||||||
lamellae | narrowly adnate with decurrent tooth, with decurrent line on stipe apex, off-white in mass, off-white or watersoaked in side view, 8 - 11 mm broad, infrequently forking, with margins browning in age; lamellulae truncate to subtruncate. | ||||||||
stipe | 63 - 100 × 11.5 mm, off-white, graying with handling, narrowing upward or cylindric, flaring at apex, decorate with fine fibrils, longitudinally striate; context off-white, unchanging when cut or bruised, larva tunnels concolorous to very pale tan, hollow, lined with white cottony material, having a 6 mm wide central cylinder; partial veil sometimes absent or (in one specimen) ragged, appressed, scant, superior; universal veil as saccate volva, smooth, leathery, whitish, rather tough, membranous, dividing into flaring lobes, less than 1 mm thick, ??typo?? - 15+ mm from highest point on limb to base of stipe, with limbus internus small (about 1 mm high) membranous and placed just above point of attachment to stipe. | ||||||||
odor/taste | not recorded. | ||||||||
macrochemical tests |
none recorded. | ||||||||
basidiospores | [41/2/1] (8.4-) 8.7 - 11.9 (-14.0) × 5.6 - 7.3 (-8.4) µm, (L = 10.5 - 10.8 µm; L’ = 10.6 µm; W = 6.4 - 6.7 µm; W’ = 6.6 µm; Q = (1.37-) 1.44 - 1.78 (-1.84); Q = 1.59 - 1.64; Q’ = 1.61), ??, thin-walled, smooth, inamyloid, ellipsoid to elongate, adaxially flattened; apiculus ??; contents ??; ?? in deposit. | ||||||||
ecology | Subgregarious. At low elevation in Atlantic Coastal Plain of eastern Virginia. In sandy loam, by path in rather low lying, damp, mixed woods. | ||||||||

Each spore data set is intended to comprise a set of measurements from a single specimen made by a single observer; and explanations prepared for this site talk about specimen-observer pairs associated with each data set. Combining more data into a single data set is non-optimal because it obscures observer differences (which may be valuable for instructional purposes, for example) and may obscure instances in which a single collection inadvertently contains a mixture of taxa.
