Specimen notes
Public Note:
flesh white with yellow above pores and base of stem. Pores surface white to start then yellow. Cap starting white then variously olive/grey/yellow/brown! Cap flesh pink in NH4OH and pink, changing grey in KOH. Taste & smell mild. With grey/lilac glandulae on stem obvious, partial veil absent but cap edge inrolled, stem with brown patches at base. Flesh not blueing. McNabb to subacerbus. Spores 10-13 x 4-4.5um in KOH, some cystidia and basidia? becoming brown in KOH (but only a few). Possibilities from Kuo: pungens (but that harsh taste and smell), placidus with white pine (with p. strobus), neoalbidipes (but false veil on mine insufficient), Thiers: S. kaibabensis, flavogranulatus. This collection closes to McNabb's description of s. acerbus except that spores considerably larger. In Kuo's key s. kaibabensis seems closest. S. subacerbus seems like a larger version of S. kaibabensis (Thiers, Mycotaxon v3) and again spores are smaller than this collection. However, no mention is made of cystidia in subacerbus and both this collection and kaibabensis have cystidia brown in KOH.
