Pholiota adiposa (Batsch) P. Kumm. 1871
Type: Lignicolous Fungi; Description: Based on personal unpublished notes of I.A.Hood. Basidiomata pileate, centrally stipitate, annual, usually in large clumps. Pileus covered with prominent dark brown, superficial, recurved, warty scales which dissolve into a slimy mucilage with age, convex when young, becoming plano-convex, 50–120 mm in diameter, yellow to yellow brown, viscid; the mucilage is washed away by rain, which leaves the surface only somewhat slimy; flesh firm, yellowish white. Gills adnate, moderately crowded, yellow to yellow-brown. Stipe yellow above the floccose annulus, yellow with large dark brown scales below, cylindrical, slightly swollen at base, solid, 70–120 mm long. Basidiospores elliptical, 6–9 × 4–6 μm, smooth, brown; spore print rusty brown.
Distribution: Bay of Plenty, Taupo, Wanganui, Wellington, Nelson, Mid Canterbury.; 1st Record: Taylor (1981).
Notes: Early descriptions of P. adiposa from New Zealand (Berkeley 1855; Massee 1899) were based on a Colenso collection which has the microscopic characters of P. aurivella (Horak 1971). No published description is available of recent New Zealand material identified as P. adiposa.
Significance: An infrequent cause of heart rot associated with wounds in living hosts.; Host(s): Beilschmiedia tawa, Dacrydium cupressinum, Hoheria angustifolia, Platanus sp., Rhododendron sp.
