Lachnella turbinata (G. Cunn.) W.B. Cooke 1961
Type and specimen examined: New Zealand: Invercargill, Otago. Oct. 1950. Collected by W. Faithful. (NZPD).
Receptacles scattered, membranous, waxy, fragile, 0,1-0,5 mm. in diameter, attached by a brief stem-like base, at first subglobose becoming urecolate or discoid; exterior dingy white, covered with a scanty tomentum, hairs 4-6 µ in diameter, wall 0,5 µ thick, hyaline, finely crystal coated; margin inturned, fimbriate; hymenial surface slightly concave, white or cream; context white, to 80 µ thick, to 250 µ at the base, of radiately arranged mainly parallel hyphae; generative hyphae 5-6 µ in diameter, wall 0,25 µ thick, branched, septate, hyaline; hymenial layer to 80 µ deep, paraphyses filiform, somewhat scanty, apices acuminate; basidia clavate, some almost capitate, 60-80 x 16-20 µ 4-spored; spores turbinate, 14-16 x 10-12 µ, smooth, hyaline.
Habitat: On Olearia paniculata.
The above description was taken from Cunningham (1953). The writer found abundant surface hairs 200-250 µ long, 7,2-9,0 µ in diameter, covered with fine crystalline material; the basidia in the portion of the type kindly loaned by Dr. Cunningham measured 50-55 x 7,2-9,0 µ. The spores measured 18 x 12,5 µ and the basidia have clamps at the base. The paraphyses-like bodies were 5-6 µ in diameter. In this and in L. pyriforma these bodies are either young basidia or cystidioles.
Pilei annual, scattered, membranous, waxy, fragile, 0.1-0.5 mm. diameter, attached by a brief stem-like base, at first subglobose becoming urceolate or discoid; exterior dingy white, covered with a scanty tomentum, hairs 4-6 µ diameter, wall 0-5 µ thick, hyaline, finely crystal coated; margin inturned, fimbriate; hymenial surface slightly concave, white or cream. Context white, to 80 µ thick, to 250 µ at the base, of radiately arranged mainly parallel hyphae; generative hyphae 5-6 µ diameter, wall 0.25 µ thick, branched, septate, hyaline. Hymenial layer to 80 µ deep, paraphyses filiform, somewhat scanty, apices acuminate. Basidia clavate, some almost capitate, 60-80 x 16-20 µ, 4-spored. Spores turbinate, 14-16 x 10-12 µ, smooth, hyaline.
DISTRIBUTION. New Zealand.
HABITAT. Scattered on bark of dead twigs.
Pilei sparsi, cerosi, primo subglobosi, deinde urceolati vel discoides, 0.1-0.5 mm. diam.; exteriore parte sordide alba, tomento tenui tecta, pilis 4-6 µ diam., subtiliter crystallis illinatis, pariete 0.5 µ crasso; margine inflecto, fimbriato. Contextus albus ad 80 µ crassus, hyphis ad 6 µ diam., in radiis ordinatis, pariete 0.25 µ crasso. Paraphyses filiformes, apicibus acuminatis. Sporae turbinatae, apiculatae, 14-16 x 10-12 µ, leves, hyalinae.
Separated from C. villosa by the small size of the pilei, rather scanty tomentum, large. almost capitate basidia and turbinate spores. The latter show a general resemblance to those of C. pyriforma, differing in shape and smaller size.
Olearia paniculata (Forst. f.) Cheesm. Otago. Invercargill; October, 1950; Faithful; type collection.
