Fr.DE: Rtlicher Rindenhelmling, Fleischroter HelmlingSlo.: lubjeva eladicaDat.: March 25. 2017Lat.: 46.33514 Long.: 13.56886Code: Bot_1042/2017_DSC7146Habitat: mixed broadleaved and conifer wood, locally almost flat terrain, cretaceous clastic rock (flysh) bedrock, in shade; dry place, partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 8-10 deg C, elevation 470 m (1.550 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: still standing Alnus sp. bark lightly overgrown with mosses; on northeast side of the trunk.Place: Bovec basin, east of Bovec, Rabeljnik hill, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC. Comments: This incredible small and filigree mushroom is, no doubt, frequently overlooked. Tiny, only a few millimeters tall, more or less brown on more or less brown, cracked tree bark, it hides itself perfectly. However, looked from close the impression is much different. Its size, unusual hyphal ends of the cortical layer of the stipe and hypha with strange digitiform outgrowths distinguish it from other small Mycena species. Growing in a group of a few fruit bodies, pileus diameter 2 to 4 mm, SP very faint, almost invisible, probably whitish.Spores smooth. Dimensions: 8,1 [9,1 ; 9,6] 10,5 x 7,3 [8 ; 8,4] 9,1 microns; Q = 1 [1,1 ; 1,2] 1,3; N = 26; C = 95%; Me = 9,3 x 8,2 microns; Qe = 1,1.

Partial veil visible on young mushrooms as well as on mature ones. The partial veil on a steamless agarics is very unusual.

Mycena stipata Maas Geest. & Schwbel, syn.: Mycena alcalina (Fr., Fr.) Kummer, Mycena alcalina sensu auct. p.p.Stump Fairy Helmet, DE: Buscheliger SalpeterhelmlingSlo.: opasta eladicaDat.: April 15. 2016Lat.: 46.39540 Long.: 13.69986Code: Bot_944/2016_DSC1359Habitat: mixed wood, Fagus sylvatica and Picea abies dominant, calcareous, alluvial ground, almost flat terrain, probably locally acid ground (Vaccinium myrtillus abundant), in shade; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies, average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 3-5 deg C, elevation 1.000 m (3.280 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: stump, roots and small twigs of Picea abies in the last stage of disintegration.Place: Zadnja Trenta valley, 'Zapodn' place, right side of (dry) bed of river Soa, between a small dam and the first ravine downstream of it, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC. Comments: Mycena stipata is relatively recently defined (1987). Two varieties (some authors consider them species) are known, which differ only microscopically: Mycena stipata var. stipata and Mycena stipata var. silvae-nigrae. The last one is typically a spring taxon, but its spores are according to Krieglsteiner (2001) significantly larger that what I measured (10-15/7-10 microns). Mycena stipata var. stipata grows mainly in autumn but also appears in spring. Spores fit well to this taxon.Growing in groups, a few together and also single; about 20 fruit bodies all together in an area of about 0.6 x 0.3 m; pilei diameter 16 - 26 mm, height 10-16 mm; stipe 2.5 - 3.5 mm diameter and 3 - 5 cm tall, hollow, fragile, smooth, with white mycelium at the base; taste rather strong, unpleasant; smell mild, mushroomy, on chemicals, a kind of nitrous; SP abundant, whitish-beige, oac900; pilei cuticle peels off in long narrow bands up to one half or more of pilei diameter. No microscopic study of hyphae and basidia has been done; hence the determination is not certain.Spores smooth. Dimensions: 8,5 [9,6 ; 10] 11 x 4,9 [5,7 ; 6] 6,8 microns; Q = 1,5 [1,7] 1,9; N = 40; C = 95%; Me = 9,8 x 5,8 microns; Qe = 1,7.
