Due to delays in data processing at GenBank, some accession numbers may lead to unreleased (pending) pages.
These pages will eventually be made live, so try again later.

| 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 text is based on photography, bacterial
cloning, and
nrITS sequencing in the lab of Dr. Karen W. Hugnes
(Univ. of Tennesse, Knoxville) original research of
R. E. Tulloss. |
| pileus |
Honey yellow with Saccardo's umber disc, umbonate; context white, very thin, narrowing evenly for ca. 0.5 radius, then membranous to margin; margin striate (0.3 - 0.4R), nonappendiculate; universal veil absent. |
| lamellae |
free, crowded, white to Ivory Yellow in side view,
rather narrow; lamellulae
??. |
| stipe |
white to Cream Buff, narrowing upward; context white, hollow or stuffed with loose cottony white fibrils; exannulate; universal veil saccate, enclosing one-quarter to one-half of stipe, membranous, white, persistent. |
| odor/taste |

macrochemical tests |
none recorded. |
| basidiospores |
[40/1/1] (8.5-) 8.8 - 11.0 (-13.5) × (7.5-) 7.6 - 9.0 (-10.3) μm, (L = 9.8 μm; W = 8.4 μm; Q = (1.05-) 1.10 - 1.32 (-1.50); Q = 1.18), hyaline, colorless, thin-walled, smooth, inamyloid, subglobose to broadly ellipsoid, infrequently ellipsoid, sometimes deformed (then peanut-shaped or pyriform or elongate-pyriform or constricted pyriform), adaxially flattened; apiculus sublateral, cylindric, proportionately large; contents dominantly monoguttulate with additional small granules, occasionally multiguttulate; white in deposit. |

Note: compare with
sp-N44.
Cloning was required in order to obtain data for
nrITS.
