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 material is based on original research by R. E. Tulloss.
composite of all data from material revised by RET: [100/4/3] (8.5-) 8.8 - 11.5 (-12.5) × (5.0-) 5.2 - 7.2 (-8.0) μm, (L = 9.5 - 10.3 μm; L' = 10.0 μm; W = 5.6 - 6.9 μm; W' = 6.1 μm; Q = (1.31-) 1.36 - 1.90 (-2.12); Q = 1.50 - 1.79; Q' = 1.65), hyaline, colorless, smooth, thin-walled, amyloid, ellipsoid to elongate, infrequently cylindric, sometimes narrowed toward one end, sometimes adaxially flattened, sometimes constricted; apiculus sublateral, cylindric, proportionately small; contents monoguttulate; color in deposit not recorded.
ecology
Solitary or in pairs. At 1640 - 1800 m elev. In sandy loam under Pinus chihuahuana, Quercus sp., Pseudotsuga menziesii, Juniperus deppeana, and Salix sp. or with Quercus and Juniperus or with Ps. menziesii.
material examined
U.S.A.: ARIZONA—Cochise Co. - CMP site #3, 27.viii.1991 Robert Chapman s.n. [CMP1326] (RET 511-9); CMP site #23, 22.viii.1989 R. Chapman s.n. [CMP0233] (RET 511-3), s.n. [CMP0226] (RET 511-4); CMP site #33, 13.viii.1989 R. Chapman s.n. [F. H. Nishida 4180; CMP0626] (RET 511-8).
discussion
At the moment, RET is inclined to believe that this material may be identical with the specimen in MICH called "A. arizonica" by A. H. Sm. in Ms.
Two Mexican collections that have not been reviewed microscopically are macroscopically very similar to the present species:
MEXICO: TLAXCALA—Mpio. Huamantla - E slope of Volcano La Malintzi, ca. old C.R.E.A. cabaña [19°14’29” N/ 97°58’35” W], 16.vii.1996 A. Montoya Esquivel & R. E. Tulloss [Tulloss
7-16-96-B] (RET 256-6; TLXM), E slope of Volcano La Malintzi, ca. old C.R.E.A. cabaña, ca. 1 km from the previously listed site, 16.vii.1996 Irmgard Krisai-Greilhuber s.n. [Tulloss 7-16-96-A] (RET 256-8; TLXM).

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.
