Specimen notes
Public Note:
dried black. 4-spored, weakly amyloid. Cap is a weakly dextrinoid polycystoderm. The surface is confused by a dense coating of spores of all sizes and mishapes, which I suspect accounts for at least some of Seggedin's description of the cap surface. The cheilo have brown resinous content (not red in KOH or melzers). spores length=5.2–6.0µm (µ=5.5, σ=0.25), width=3.1–3.7µm (µ=3.4, σ=0.16), Q=1.4–1.8µm (µ=1.64, σ=0.10), n=24. Seggedin's pleurocystidia not observed. Seems like a small Prunulus. Note that segedin says the cap is orange brown to rust - which does not fit with many subsequent applications of this name. For the moment I will assume this, and especially red globules, are characteristic.
