GenBank nos.
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.
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 upon original research by R. E. Tulloss.
odor/taste
Odor like "new potatoes" or like "cucumbers." Taste not recorded.
macrochemical tests
none recorded.
lamella trama
bilateral, divergent; ??.
subhymenium
pseudoparenchymatous (cellular); ??.
basidia
??; clamps common.
gluten layer
On pileus as gluten pile supported by subanticlinal, filamentous undifferentiated hyphae of two forms; dominant form ca. 2.5 μm wide, ??; less frequent form ca. 5.5 μm wide, ??; clamps common.
[Note: Only five spores found despite extensive search. Material immature.—RET]
ecology
Subgregarious. Under Abies.
material examined
U.S.A.: WASHINGTON—Klickitat Co. - Mt. Adams, ca. Rd. 82, 27.vi.2010 S. & R. Krstić s.n. (RET 450-4).
discussion
The two forms of hyphae noted in the gluten layer may represent both the initially developing hyphae that gelatinize to produce the gluten and the secondarily developing hyphae which apparently hold the gluten on the pileus—the "gluten-supporting" hyphae.

Spore data for collections provisionally identified as: Zhuliangomyces sp-Krstic-27-vi-2010 Tulloss
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.
