Specimen notes
Public Note:
30th Fungal Foray of New Zealand
Public Note:
[PL] cap applanate, velutinate, chocolate brown (6F7). Pores adnexed, irregular, golden yellow, larger near stem, 7 per 10mm, bluing slightly. Stipe clavate, longitudinally striate, brown, paler than cap, finely scabrous. [JAC] Roy Halling made the observation (obvious in retrospect) that this looks like a pored Phylloporus, which is indeed supported by the phylogenetics. To re-iterate McNabbs differences of X. scabripes to X. squamulosus, he has 1) smaller pores 0.5-1mm versus 1-1.5mm , 2) scabrous brown stem versus furfuraceous fawn to mid brown, 3) narrower spores 9.4-13 x 3.2-4.5 versus 9.6-11.7x 3.9-5. This has pores 0.8-2mm, scabrous brown stem, spores length=9.7-14.2µm (µ=11.6, σ=1.20), width=4.1-5.2µm (µ=4.6, σ=0.32), Q=2.1-3.0µm (µ=2.53, σ=0.23), n=19. So, this does fit the concept of X. scabripes and may determine if that is a synonym of X. squamulosus. [sep 2016] sequences indicate a cluster of lentistipitatus within a broad group that may, or may not be squamulosus/scabripes, different to 9246 which again may or may not be squamulosus/scabripes.
