Specimen notes
Public Note:
Seems to match P. physaloides sensu Guzman 1983. Small caps, no ring, no bluing, short and broad cheilocystidia (about 18-22 x 5-7 µm) with short neck, spores distinctly rhomboid, about 7-8 µm long.

Public Note:
For Noordeloos D. physaloides a nom. dub. but equated to D. xeroderma, which is very different to the concept here. This has the macro appearance of D. nz with a ling thin stem and striate cap. The spores here are are rhomboidal. We seem to have several species in this D. nz group with some variation in the rhomboidal appearance and size of spores. More collections are required. I will remove this to D. nz. sensu lato until there is clarity.
