Specimen notes
Public Note:
New record for New Zealand. In restoration site amongst cabbage tree leaves and near tea tree. With Hebeloma-like faint raddishy sweet smell. Taste bitter farinaceous. Stem minutely furfuraceous, with plentiful caulocystidia, without ring. Cap felty - well described as like chamois leather. Stem base yellowing when cut (not strongly). Flesh and cap no reaction with KOH. Cap a hymeniderm with distinct cystidia-like layer. 4-spored. Spores thick-walled, with germ pore length=11.6-13.4µm (µ=12.2, σ=0.5), width=6.5-7.3µm (µ=6.9, σ=0.3), Q=1.6-1.9µm (µ=1.8, σ=0.1), n=10. Cheilocystidia slightly lecythiform, with fewer larger utriform cystidia which are also present as infrequent pleurocystidia? Contents of cystidia yellowish in melzers, not staining in KOH. Hyphae with broad buckle clamps (almost not recognisable as clamps). Spores drab to snuff brown in mass. Cystidia not thick-walled - Watlings' section microsporae. Another wood chip species clearly spreading around the globe. Described in 1913 from France, then in 1958 in Netherlands and then exploded across Italy, Denmark and the UK. First reported in uk in 1986 and spread there rapidly. Reported from California and probably there since 2000 (http://www.fungimag.com/winter-08-articles/3_Else.pdf). [JAC Sep. 2011] Peter's records of A. sororia in Auckland (2004 onwards) are this species and represent earlier collections. with DNA tube
