Stigmatolemma (Kalchbr.) W. B. Cooke, Mycologia, 1. c. Characters as given in 1957.

Stigmatolemma huia (G. H. Cunn.) comb. nov.

= Porotheleum hia (G. H. Cunn.) W. B. Cooke, Mycologia, l. c.
Subiculum annual, felted, white, loosely attached, effused, forming small, sharply defined orbicular or linear areas 1-15 mm. long, to 160 µ thick. Pilei aggregated in groups of few (4-6) or many (30-80) in scattered areas, depressedglobose, sessile, 250-600 µ diameter, opening tardily by a narrow naked pore, seated within loculi in the substratum, each differentiated by a more densely woven zone and filled with loosely woven hyphae; exterior covered with felted white tomentum of hyaline woven crystal-coated hyphae which, when removed, exposes the almost black glabrous wall; margin naked, even, almost black. Context fuscous, to 70 µ thick, composed of densely woven almost pseudoparenchymatous hyphae; generative hyphae to 3 µ diameter, wall 0.25 µ thick, at first hyaline becoming fuscous near the periphery, branched, septate, finely crystal-coated. Hymenial layer to 40 µ deep, paraphyses subclavate. Basidia subclavate, 24-32 x 6-7 µ, 4-spored. Spores oblong, with rounded ends, apiculate, 7-9 x 5-6.5 µ, smooth, hyaline.
DISTRIBUTION. New Zealand.
HABITAT. Crowded on bark of dead stems.
Subiculum coactum, album, in septa parva linearia acute definita 1-15 mm. longa effusum. Pilei in globis parvis (4-6) aut magnis (30-80) congregati, depresse globosi, sessiles, 250-600 µ diam., angusto nudo foramine in loculis in subiculo tarde hiscens; exteriore parte coacto albo tomento super nigrum glabrum parietem tecta. Contextus fuscus ad 70 µ crassus, hyphis dense textis compositus. Sporae oblongae, extremis rotundis, 7-9 x 5-6.5 µ, leves, hyalinae.
Pilei grow crowded in small groups on loosely attached portions of felted subiculum, and are depressed-globose and black where exposed. Each is embedded in a separate locule in the subiculum, defined by a densely woven wall and filled with loose hyphae. Primitive locules are present also in S. poriaeformis. Pilei open tardily by a narrow pore; their surfaces are long coated with dense white tomentum which, when rubbed away, exposes the glabrous black pileus wall.
Leptospermum scoparium Forst. Auckland. Huia, 100 feet; November, 1945; G.H.C.; type collection.
MYRTACEAE. Leptospermum ericoides: Auckland, Huia, 20 m, type collection, P.D.D. herbarium, No. 4392.
Subiculum annual, membranous, white, loosely attached, to 160 µ. thick, effused forming small and sharply defined orbicular or linear areas 1-15 mm long, of closely intertwined hyphae. Pilei aggregated in groups of few (4-6) opening many (30-80) in scattered areas, seated in loculi, depressed globose, 250-600 µ diameter, opening tardily by a narrow naked pore; exterior covered with felted white tomentum, becoming naked, even, almost black; hymenial surface even, white or cream, concave; loculi filled with loosely intertwined freely branched hyphae bordered by a more compact intertwined zone. Context fuscous, to 70 µ thick, composed of parallel densely arranged hyphae pseudoparenchymatous in the base; generative hyphae 2-4 µ diameter, walls 0.25 µ thick, hyaline, fuscous near the periphery. Hymenial layer to 40 µ deep, a dense palisade of basidia and paraphyses. Basidia subclavate, 24-32 x 6-7 µ, bearing 4 spores; sterigmata slightly arcuate, to 6 µ long. Paraphyses subclavate, 18-26 x 5-6 µ. Spores oblong with rounded ends, apiculate, 7-9 x 5-6.5 µ, walls smooth, hyaline, 0.2 µ thick.
TYPE LOCALITY: Huia, Auckland.
DISTRIBUTION: New Zealand.
HABITAT: Crowded on bark of dead stems.
Pilei are crowded in groups in the felted subiculum. Each is embedded in a distinct locule, defined by a compact wall and filled with loosely intertwined hyphae. As pilei mature, the apical portion becomes partly denuded of tomentum, and ruptures by a narrow pore. Attached to the walls are densely arranged abhymenial hairs which are freely branched, almost dendrophytic, and encrusted with masses of crystals. They are ultimately shed near apices, but elsewhere remain, and serve to retain each pileus within its locule
