Specimen notes
Public Note:
[GS] Three fruiting bodies of varying maturity growing on a rotting log in native bush. Cap size up to 50 mm across. [WMD] This looks like a Pluteus species I see commonly in native bush in an East Auckland reserve but which doesn't turn up on NatureWatch very often (except for my observations). It would seem to be a Pluteus species not in Horak's pink-spored Agaricales of New Zealand book and is yet to be named. This species can be mis-identified as Pluteus readiarum, however this species differs from Pluteus readiarum in that the gills have more yellow tones and the lamellae extend all the way to the cap margin (in Pluteus readiarum the cap margin exceeds the gill lamellae - although occasionally this is not obvious). The stipe is cream to cream-yellow and often has tan-brown granules towards the base. The dark squamules on the cap surface are uniformly distributed over the surface of the cap whereas for Pluteus readiarum the dark squamules are typically arranged in a network pattern although this can be quite variable.
