Specimen notes
Public Note:
no smell, taste mild. Stipe with wider base and thin mycelia mat. Gills decurrent, yellowish. Caulocystidia on upper part only. Cap radially fibrillose, surface layer separable when dry (gelatinised?). Stem tissue not dextrinoid, with clavate, surface crystals, slightly amyloid (or just brown?) caulocystidia. Cap partially gelatinized, terminal elements with brown plasmatic content and globose/vesiculose terminal elements, clamped. No gill tissue amyloid/dextrinoid. Spores ellipsoid, inamyloid (or very slightly amyloid?), 9-13 x 6.5um, 4-spored. Cheilocystidia? Basidia collapsing readily, spores consistently clumped whilst attached. Singer to Neoclitocybe/Trogia but what about hemimycena/hydropus? Looks a bit like Stevenson's Omphalina foetida but spores larger. Wilson & Desjardin dismiss Trogia because corners type is lost? See Legon in Mycologist v13p2 for pictures of a Nothpanus that looks like a Trogia and a Trogia that doesn't. This is on O. foetida on Egon's suggestion but I've decided it isn't. See also his Trogia 1971. As a Hydropus it would have sarcodimitic tissue in the stem. Does it?
