Tricholoma brevipes sensu Massee 1899 [1898]

Tricholoma brevipes (Bulliard) (1, 16) = Lepista sp.

The spores of this collection (COLENSO b 411) are neither amyloid nor dextrinoid, hyaline, warted, and measured about 5-6.5 X 3.5-4 µ. As the fruiting bodies formed fairy rings and grew in fields around Napier we suspect this fungus was introduced into New Zealand with grass seeds.

Pileus convex then flattened, the umbo soon disappearing, blackish-umber or brown, becoming paler, glabrous, 3-8 cm. across; flesh thick, brownish when moist, almost white when dry; gills emarginate, crowded, ventricose, at first with a brown tinge, then whitish, 2-4 mm. broad; stem short and stout, up to 2.5 cm. long, firm, rigid, somewhat thickened at the base, 1.5 cm. thick above, solid, brown outside and inside; spores elliptical, 7 x 4 µ.
Northern Island, New Zealand. Europe.
On the ground.
Distinguished by the very short more or less bulbous stem, which is solid, and brown both inside and outside.
