Specimen notes
Public Note:
Spores slightly angular (less so than last collection) 17 x 8um with pore. Some veilar remnants are visible on cap edge. Like previous collection all refs point to this sp. despite longer spores. If more emphasis placed on longer spores then this fits within BFF5 p. merdicola. Guzman in Bib Myc 159 has coprophila with 10-12 and argentina as high altitude sp. with 12-15um spores. However this coll seems identical with Kaitorete spit coll. which is sea-level! This possibly D. argentina auct NZ and probably P. merdicola.
