Specimen notes
Public Note:
This species grows consistently every year on roots of an Aciphylla outside Crop & Food main entrance. Smell sweet - Lepista-like. Cap to 6cm clay pink, cuticle peeling slightly, partially gelatinised, a trichoderm, no clamps, tissue with broad hyphae (10um). Gills concolorous, not crowded(unlike Lepista), emarginate, not entire. Stem slightly eccentric 1-2cm thick, concolorous to cream, fasciculate. Spores roughened, not amyloid/dextrinoid, not metachromatic, slightly cyanophilous (and then uniform), no siderophilous granules in basidia. 4-spored 8-9 x 4-5um pip-shaped with prominent apiculus, wrinkled and slightly angular in polar-view. No pleurocystidia or pseudocystidia, Cheilocystidia prominent, 4050um x 5um cylindrical/filiform. A Rhodocybe in the same section as 9514 (which is more robust with blackish areas on cap and decurrent gills) and 9515 (which is probably identical but from another part of campus but again in re-planted native bush). Keys to R. piperata? ITS Sequence data from David Orlovich using primers PN3 and PN10 (see Viaud M, Pasquier A, Brygoo Y 2000. Diversity of soil fungi studied by PCR-RFLP of ITS. Mycological Research 104, 1027-1032), which amplify the entire ITS region. Sequence same as other R. piperita.
