Conocybe sp. 2 Watling & G.M. Taylor 1987

Collections Examined

As Agaricus pediades, Colenso b 113 (K). Galera tenera Schaeffer ex Fries (= Conocybe tenera (Schaeffer ex Fries) Fayod) has been recorded by Colenso (1890) and by Massee (1898). Unfortunately it is not possible to confirm early records as most small brown ' Galera' -like agarics resembling Agaricus tener were lumped under that epithet.

Description

The mixed collection of Colenso's b 113 contains a single basidioma agreeing very closely with the fungus described above as Conocybe sp. 1. Basidiospores 15-16.5 x 8-9.5 µm, ellipsoid, red-brown in water, smooth, thick-walled; germ-pore prominent, broad. Basidia 2-spored. Cheilocystidia collapsed, capitulum 4-4.5µm broad. Caulocystidia mixture of lecythiform and hair-like ceils.
