[GS] Pileus 2-4 cm. diam., ochraceous salmon, infundibuliform with downrolled margin, smooth, silky; flesh whitish. Gills decurrent, pale ochraceous, shallow, rather crowded, repeatedly forking. Stipe 1-3 cm. x 3-4 mm., pale ochraceous salmon, smooth to velvety with a weft of hyphae at the base, solid, fleshy. Spores 6-8 X 3-4um, amyloid (Fig. 1/39, p. 10). HABITAT: in forest soil, Woodside, Dunedin, 1.7.1953, M. Morrison in Stevenson (type). [EH] = Clitocybe clitocyboides (Cooke and Massee) Pegler, 1965. It is difficult to see why this fungus was originally described in Leucopaxillus for apart from the decurrent gills, it has nothing in common with that genus. C. clitocyboides closely resembles C. hydrogramma (Fries) Singer even to the distinct chlamydospores. [JAC] Spores inamyloid. Cap vesicles typical of Singerocybe clitocyboides are confirmed present. Without doubt this species. Spores from gill length=6.1–8.4µm (µ=7.5, σ=0.67), width=3.2–4.7µm (µ=4.1, σ=0.34), Q=1.4–2.1µm (µ=1.83, σ=0.17), n=20
