Specimen notes
Public Note:
with steel grey stem going blue at base, gill edge slightly greyish (darker on drying), gills drying smoke grey. Cap rugulose with tomentum at umbo and innately fibrillose towards edge. Smell and taste not distinctive. Cheilocystidia 50-60 x 20um thick walled, metuloid, with horns. Spores smooth 7-8 x 5.5. broadly ellipsoid to subglobose. With pleurocystidia like cheilocystidia. Without caulocystidia, clamped. Cap hyphae filamentous with broadly lanceolate terminal elements, septate and filled with brown plasmatic content. Is clearly in stirps salicina. Why isn't Stevenson's veronicae in salicina?. Would agree with Pat that descriptions of veronicae and velutiornatus are different. However, this this has a very disticntive blue coloration at base of stem and Stevenson's description doesn't emphasize this. This description fits quite well with salicinus except perhaps the darker stem and slightly darkening gill edge. The only NZ section pluteus with clamps is similis (Horak ined.) and this isn't that. This has to be P. velutiornatus.
