Descriptions
Omphalia pyxidata sensu Massee 1899 [1898]
Pileus membranaceous, umbilicate, then infundibuliform, almost glabrous ; radially striate and brick-red or rufescent when moist, hygrophanous ; whitish and minutely silky when dry; 1.5-2.5 cm. across; gills decurrent, rather distant, narrow, flesh-colour, then yellowish; spores 7-8 x 5-6 µ; stem 2-2.5 cm. long, 2 mm. thick, even, tough, pale-rufescent, stuffed, then hollow.
Dannevirke, New Zealand. Europe, Australia.
Among short grass, &c.
Characterized by the dull-red tinge of the entire fungus and the narrow gills. Specimens of this species have been found amongst the New Zealand fungi sent to Kew by Colenso, hence its occurrence does not rest on the doubtful identification of the specimens alluded to in the Handbook of the New Zealand Flora, p. 602.
