Specimen notes
Public Note:
FeSO4 pink, smell slight. Cap rugose, taste hot, gills without lamellulae but basal interveining, cap edge long remaining involute, gills E-F. Stem white cylindrical, cap dark buff, no other colours. The choice is between R. acrolamellata and Pat's sp. 7 . This site now has 3 collections of lamellata-ish looking Russulas that all seem distinct. . PL "This is R. acrolamellata. Size, taste (hot rather than foetid/bitter), strongly inrolled margin and habitat with Kunzea all suggest this rather than R. seven." Sequences say this is actually novaezelandiae, which is unfortunate because McNabb's key distinction for this species is the lack of hot taste - and this was hot - so I noted. Pat's collections are identical sequence-wise, but mild (and with Nothofagus). There is absolutely no Nothofagus on this site. R. naz microscopically seems to have distinctivley really long (to 500um) vermiform DCY. Others in this group are shorter and less noticeable. Spores with plage and amyloid spot. Spores length=8.6–10.3µm (µ=9.4, σ=0.5), width=7.2–8.5µm (µ=7.8, σ=0.4), Q=1.1–1.3µm (µ=1.20, σ=0.05), n=20, ornamentation to 1.5um. Two packets?
