Specimen notes
Public Note:
[WMD] These small mushrooms were about 2.2 cm in diameter and the cap was brown in colour with a paler margin. The gills are cream and attached at the top to the stipe. The stipe is tan with a 'dusty' covering. Under totara. The spores are approximately globose with a prominant hilar appendix, about 5-5.5 micron in diameter. There are what appear to be pilocystidia present on the cap surface and plentiful cheilocystidia, some of which appear to be encrusted. [JAC] The spores have distinct internal granulation (but not like Fayodia). I'd say a Hydropus again - maybe. Those spores and cystidia are exactly like the type of Clitocybula grisella, except I can't see the hydropoid vesicles in the cap, the cap isn't umbilicate, the stem doesn't have basal strigose hyphae, and it is a bit big. We'll see where it comes out. I'm probably way off. Subsequent sequence says Mycenella and same as 14643
