| intro |
The following text may make multiple use of each data field. The field may contain magenta text presenting data from a type study and/or revision of other original material cited in the protolog of the present taxon. Macroscopic descriptions in magenta are a combination of data from the protolog and additional observations made on the exiccata during revision of the cited original material. The same field may also contain black text, which is data from a revision of the present taxon (including non-type material and/or material not cited in the protolog). Paragraphs of black text will be labeled if further subdivision of this text is appropriate. 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 the protolog of the present species. | ||||||||||||||||||||

from protolog: [-/-/-] 4.5 - 6.0 × 4.5 - 5.0 μm, (est. Q = 1.0 - 1.20), subhyaline, smooth, with wall thin or not, inamyloid, globose to subglobose to broadly ellipsoid; apiculus not described; contents not described; color in deposit not recorded. Neville and Poumarat (2004), from study of "small basidiome" of type: [20/1/1] 5.5 - 6.5 (-7) × 5 - 5.5 μm, (L = 5.8 μm; W = 5.4 μm; Q = 1.0 - 1.30 (-1.40); Q = 1.08), thin-walled, smooth or very subtly spinulose in Congo Red, smooth in Melzer's Reagent and Cotton Blue, non-dextrinoid. Neville and Poumarat (2004), from study of "larger basidiome with many spores attached to 4-sterigmate basidia" of type: [20/1/1] 5 - 6 × 4 - 5 μm, (L = 5.1 μm; W = 4.8 μm; Q = 1.0 - 1.20 (-1.30); Q = 1.06). [Note: Neville and Poumarat give separate measurements for sets of "globose spores" for each of the basidiomes of the holotype; however, they clearly have included globose spores in the sets of measurements cited above, because they give a range of Q including 1.0.—ed.] | ||||||||||||||||||||

| discussion |
The fact that none of sporographs generated by the published spore data are hexagonal suggests that the data was not developed using the methods used and taught on the present site. The protolog data is presented in German by Gminder (1994: 391) and in French by Neville and Poumarat (2004: 198-199). According to Gminder (1994) and Neville and Poumarat (2004), the present name is a taxonomic synonym of Limacella furnacea. | ||||||||||||||||||||

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.
