Specimen notes
Public Note:
An old specimen. Fits in every rspect with this Western Australian taxon from Eucalypt forests and from Tasmania. PDD90605 is possibly the same. 4-spored, ellipsoid, length=7.1\endash8.9µm (µ=8.0, σ=0.5), width=4.8\endash6.0µm (µ=5.4, σ=0.4), Q=1.3\endash1.6µm (µ=1.5, σ=0.1), n=11. Spores somewhat larger than Bougher's material. Very strongly amyloid, without plage, cap tissue thick-walled glassy and distinctly clamped (i.e. Leucopaxillus and not Melanoleuca). But note existence of Stevenson's Tricholomopsis vinaces = Melanoleuca vinaces for which Horak says the barbed cheilocystidia are infrequent and both Stevenson & Horak mention clamps which would be uncharacteristic of Melanoleuca. However Stevenson's taxon is much smaller and with weakly amyloid spores.
