Specimen notes
Public Note:
Cap very slimy. With grey flat veil in middle of cap. Perhaps often washed off. Taste mild. Spores amyloid, globose 8-9um. Flesh not staining yellow, not drying pink Hyphae of stipitipellis unclamped. Does not fit Ridley spp. Veil of globose cells - but perhaps mixed. Spores length=8.6-10.5µm (µ=9.4, σ=0.53), width=7.2-9.2µm (µ=8.1, σ=0.52), Q=1.0-1.3µm (µ=1.15, σ=0.06), n=20. Sequence says Bealy!. LSU confirms section mappae. This sits with A. nothofagi and A. karea but seems quite variable in morphology. The spores are nothofagi-like rather than karea. This species may have contributed to Ridley's broad concept. At least some versions of the Australian A. luteofusca appear to be similar, with the flat veilar remnants and perhaps colour fading with maturity. However, LSU for that is near A. nothofagi and not this. Nearest is US A. silvicola (pure white, sticky cap, with conifers).
