Classification
Descriptions
Pleurotus ostreatus sensu G. Stev. 1964
A small form of this widespread species, closely similar to that illustrated by Lange (1936), was collected at Levin on a tree lucerne stump by A. S. Wilkinson, 1.8.1952. This collection, Stevenson 874, had a sour smell when fresh, but anatomical characters and spores agree with descriptions of this species. A larger form with yellow gills was collected from indigenous forest by M. Curran, at Muritai, 12.2.1958.
