Omphalia stellata sensu Massee 1899 [1898]

Omphalia stellata (Fries) (8,16) Fig. 25 = Mycena veronicae Stevenson

The identification of this material (COLENSO 545 b) is confirmed by the typical club-shaped cells in the cuticle filled with a brown cell sap, decurrent gills, and the ovoid spores.

Pileus truly membranaceous, convex, umbilicate, pellucidly striate, glabrous, 1-1.5 cm. across; gills decurrent, rather distant, thin, not triangular; spores elliptical, 6-7 X 4 µ; stem usually about 2 cm. long, very slender, fragile, stuffed, then hollow, often curved, base dilated and radially strigose or hairy.
