Specimen notes
Public Note:
[WD] These Pluteus fruit bodies have dark coloured squamules overlying a cream-yellow cap. The gills are creamy with yellow tones and the gill lamellae extend all the way to the cap margin. The stipe is white-cream, not especially bulbous at the base and 5-7 mm in diameter. These fruit bodies were the largest I have seen for this species, 3.5-6.5 cm in diameter and 4.5-8 cm in height. Remnant mature coastal broadleaf forest.[JAC] spores length=6.5-7.8µm (µ=7.3, σ=0.31), width=5.2-6.6µm (µ=5.9, σ=0.43), Q=1.1-1.4µm (µ=1.25, σ=0.08), n=20. Pleurocystidia to 70 x 20 at broadest and 10um at thinnest, and CC similar. The meaurements of the pleurocystidia are larger than Horak reported for his concept of P. minor (ZT 68-478 = PDD 88721) at 45-55 x 14-18 (but drawings are 50-70 x 6-18um). Horak indicated the type of P. minor was in poor condition and Stevenson's comments about 'fawn to greenish brown' cap indicated an issue, and perhaps confusion with P. readiarum. If this is Stevenson's P. minor then the demonstrated variability in cap colour from fawn to brown to yellow (with forms looking very like P. readiarum) is consistent with Stevenson's description, and the micro-morphology of Horak's specimen quite close.
