Bolbitius sp. 1 Watling & G.M. Taylor 1987
Material collected by Horak (ZT 69/109) from Tophouse Saddle, Nelson may represent a new taxon within the B. vitellinus group or an extreme form.
The persistently yellow stipe is significant, and microscopically this collection can be characterised by the innumerable, inflated vesiculose hyaline cheilocystidia and polymorphic frequently septate caulocystidia. B. vitellinus generally has a cream straw or yellowish buff stipe; B. variecolor Atk. has a deeper yellow stipe and the pileus is olivaceous.
