This with tea-tree, not Nothofagus. cap mouse grey to grey olivaceous. Not showing areolate patches. Flesh solid, white. Slightly green/yellow under cap. Peeling 50% and grey immediately under surface. No reaction with NH4OH(but material partly dried). Gills F, no lamellulae but occasionally anastomosing. Stem with faint violaceous flush. Guiaiac blue (but only fresh. Tried last year's solution and that pink). Taste mild. FeSO4 no reaction. Spore print D-F. griseoviridis? Or atroviridis (nothofagus?). Cap with long septate repent hairs (when do they become pilocystidia?), bifurcating at base. Cheilocystidia not present, gill edge with streile band. Pleurocystidia frequent. Cap magenta in SV but without DCY/SV+ve. Fuchsinophile hyphae not observed. Spores with grey amyloid irregular spot (plate). Some 2-spored basidia and correspondingly bigger spores. Spores length=8.5-10.6µm (µ=9.4, σ=0.5), width=7.5-9.2µm (µ=8.0, σ=0.4), Q=1.1-1.4µm (µ=1.2, σ=0.1), n=20. Not griseoviridis (that cracked areolate and white gills/spores). Possibility this is something new - large cap size and not really looking like other atroviridis. ITS places this identical to FZ09/0869 as R. aucklandica? That collection not in FZ database (must be with Pat?). The images are identical (FZ pic not assigned), but surely not R. aucklandica without vinaceous cap? If so then it will have characteristic cheilocystidia. Does it? With spore print.
