Mycena galericulata sensu Massee 1899 [1898]

The size of carpophores, and spores of this collection (COLENSO b 228) clearly differ from those of true M. galericulata known from the northern hemisphere.

Mycena galericulata sensu Massee 1899 [1898]

Pileus conical, then campanulate, at length expanded, thin and somewhat flexible, umbonate, dry, glabrous, rather coarsely striate up to the umbo, greyish, often with a more or less decided brown tinge, 2-5 cm. across; gills adnate, with a decurrent tooth, about 1 mm. broad, connected by veins, white, becoming tinged with pink when old or dry; spores 6-7 x 4 µ; stem variable in length, 5-10 cm., 2-5 mm. thick, equal, rigid, even, polished, pallid ; base tapering and often rooting, densely strigose, hollow.
New Zealand. Australia, Tasmania, Europe, United States.
On trunks and stumps.

Solitary,, or more frequently tufted; sometimes growing on the ground, probably springing from buried wood.

Most closely allied to Mycena rugosa, a species not yet found in New Zealand. The latter, however, differs in having the pileus radially wrinkled or rugulose nearly up to the disc, but not distinctly striate ; the stem is also shorter and compressed ; finally, the gills are greyish-white without a trace of pink when old.
