| Review (by Malcolm Storey) | Describes what happens on BMS residential forays. Reports Entoloma madidum, newly confirmed as British. Now we’re going to have to look much more carefully at so-called Entoloma bloxhamii! There is a spore difference: E. madidum spores are +/- globose and only reach 7µm diam, whereas those of E. bloxhamii are larger, averaging 8.2/8.3µm and can reach 10µm. Discusses the new placement of Porpoloma species in Pseudotricholoma, following recent DNA work. |
