| discussion |
Corner & Bas (1962): "A monkey did eat this species without discomfort. "This species resembles A. ovalispora Boed., but has considerably larger spores. It differs from A. vaginata and allied species by the [broadly] ellipsoid spores." | ||||||||||||||||||||

Spore data sets and their composite
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.
