intro |
Olive text indicates a specimen that has not been
thoroughly examined (for example, for microscopic details) and marks other places in the text
where data is missing or uncertain. The following is based upon original research by R. E. Tulloss. | ||||||||
pileus | more than 62 mm wide, 6C-D4, brown-peach over disc, planoconvex, tacky; context not recorded; margin short striate [in exsiccatum]; universal veil absent. | ||||||||
lamellae | ??, subcrowded, beige in exsiccatum (slightly less gray than 5C4); lamellulae truncate, unevenly distributed. | ||||||||
stipe | 112 × 6 mm in exsiccatum, narrowing upward, undecorated; context not recorded; exannulate; universal veil as saccate volva, white, membranous, highest point 40+ mm from stipe base, lacking marked or discolored limbus internus in exsiccatum. | ||||||||
odor/taste | not recorded. | ||||||||
macrochemical tests |
none recorded. | ||||||||
lamella trama | bilateral, with angle of divergence shallow to 45°; wcs = 40 - 50 µm (moderate rehydration); with subhymenial base containing many narrow divergent cells (narrowly clavate to subcylindric to narrowly subfusiform—e.g., 78 × 20 µm) and similarly divergent filamentous, undifferentiated hyphae; filamentous undifferentiated hyphae ?; vascular hyphae ?. | ||||||||
subhymenium | wst-near = 35 - 65 µm; wst-far = 60 - 90 µm; as branching structure of small inflated cells and partially inflated and uninflated hyphal segments, with basidia arising from cells of all such forms. [Quality of rehydration not stated, incomplete description.] | ||||||||
basidia | 70± × 17.5± µm, 4-sterigmate, ?; clamps ?. | ||||||||
basidiospores | [20/1/1] (9.8-) 9.9 - 12.0 (-13.6) × (8.9-) 9.1 - 10.9 (-12.2) µm, (L = 10.8 µm; W = 10.0 µm; Q = (1.02-) 1.03 - 1.15 (-1.19); Q = 1.09), hyaline, colorless, smooth, thin-walled, inamyloid, globose to subglobose, occasionally broadly ellipsoid, ??; apiculus sublateral, truncate-conic, broad, but not very high; context monoguttulate, often with small granules surrounding dominant guttule; color in deposit unknown. | ||||||||
ecology | Solitary at 2450± m elev. With Pinus arizonica in forest composed of that tree and Pseuodotsuga menziesii. | ||||||||
material examined | U.S.A.: ARIZONA—Cochise Co. - CMP site #44, 25.viii.1994 F. H. Nishida & R. E. Tulloss 8-25-94-A [CMP3970] (RET 675-10); CMP site #46, 15.viii.1991 Lilia Pérez-Ramirez 1445 [CMP0899] (RET). | ||||||||

Each spore data set is intended to comprise a set of measurements from a single specimen made by a single observer; and explanations prepared for this site talk about specimen-observer pairs associated with each data set. Combining more data into a single data set is non-optimal because it obscures observer differences (which may be valuable for instructional purposes, for example) and may obscure instances in which a single collection inadvertently contains a mixture of taxa.
