Hohenbuehelia luteola G. Stev. 1964

[GS] Pileus 2-2-5 cm. diam., pale yellowish, orbicular, velvety; flesh white, soft. Gills shortly decurrent, pale yellow, moderately crowded. Stipe 4 X 3 mm., lateral, pale yellow, smooth to velvety. Spores 8-9 X 4.5-5 um, nonamyloid, thin-walled. Metuloids 45-50 X 15-20um, pseudo-amyloid, very thick-walled, with crystals, abundant on gill faces (Fig. 1/52, p. 10). HABITAT : on fallen wood, Waikanae, 1.1.1951, Stevenson (type). [JC] the cap appears polished, with fine even tomentum towards a pronounced stipe. Stipe with white hyphae and rhizoids. Lamellulae relatively few or absent compared to H. podocarpinea, nothofaginea, brunnea. Gill edge entire. Cap is much paler than previous specimens. Pileipellis a separable elastic pellicle. The surface layer is not darker, unlike previous species examined, and has abundant metuloid pilocystidia, usually without crystals. Also with gloeosphex cystidia on the surface. Clamped.Material heavily contaminated with penicillium spores. The gloeosphex cystidia on the pileus and lamellae have a distinctive morphology not seen on previous NZ types, like raisins. Spores length=6.9–8.8µm (µ=7.9, σ=0.53), width=3.8–5.8µm (µ=4.9, σ=0.54), Q=1.3–2.0µm (µ=1.64, σ=0.17), n=20, ellipsoid

Tectella luteohinnulea Stevenson (29 D) Fig. 15 = Hohenbuehelia luteohinnulea (Stevenson) comb. nov. (Basionym: T. luteohinnulea Stevenson, Kew Bull. 19: 30, 1964)

There is no reason why this species should have been described in Tectella, especially seeing that the "veil", which is specific to Tectella, is apparently formed by the remnants of a web-like cover produced by insects.

Pileus 1-2 -5 cm, diam., yellow to yellow-fawn, moist becoming velvety or floccose, fan-shaped or spathulate with margins down-rolled at first; flesh thin, yellowish. Gills decurrent, creamy white, shallow, thick, very crowded, margins somewhat serrulate. Stipe 2-3 x 2-3 mm, lateral, concolorous, with attached rhizomorphs. Veil felt-like, creamy yellow, well developed. Spores 6-7 x 3-4 µm, non-amyloid, thin-walled. Metuloids 30-60 x 10-20 µm, pseudoamyloid, very thick-walled and encrusted with crystals, extremely abundant (Fig. 37). Cuticle of more or less parallel loosely woven thin-walled hyphae.
In humus layer of soil under second growth scrub, Wellington Botanic Garden, 26.4.1948, Stevenson & 26.5.1949, Stevenson (type).
