intro
Olive text indicates a specimen that has not been
thoroughly examined (for example, for microscopic details) and marks other places in the text
where data is missing or uncertain.
The following material is based on the notes and photographs of the collectors, DNA sequences from the lab. of J. Geml (Leiden), and other original research of R. E. Tulloss.
pileus
48-70 mm wide, red-brown; context pinkish-beige, very fragile.
stipe
55 - 90 × 8.5 - 11 mm; context pinkish-beige, stipe solid with whitish pith, very fragile.
odor/taste
Odor very strongly farinaceous. Taste farinaceous to slightly bitter.
macrochemical tests
none recorded.
lamella edge tissue
fertile.
ecology

Spore data for collections provisionally identified as: Limacella sp-L-OR01 Tulloss
Each spore data set is intended to comprise a set of measurements from a single specimen made by a single observer;
and explanations prepared for this site talk about specimen-observer pairs associated with each data set.
Combining more data into a single data set is non-optimal because it obscures observer differences
(which may be valuable for instructional purposes, for example) and may obscure instances in which
a single collection inadvertently contains a mixture of taxa.
