I have posted Shaffer's 1962 key to the Compactae section of Russula in the "Files" area, for reference. The easiest way to separate R. nigricans from R....
Hi Michael, thank you for the comments and for uploading the key. I am familiar with it, but it is good one for the wider community. I will definitely comment...
While processing some material from Nov 2007, I stumbled on this one -- Sowerbyella rhenana -- or, formerly known as Aleuria rhenana. The distinctly stipitate...
I also recommend reading Nathan's treatment of this species on Mushroom Observer: http://mushroomobserver.org/name/show_name/1073 There is much detailed...
Hi Herman, yes, I'd go ahead and do so -- the matter is pretty settled now. I just wanted to show that it is not entirely intuitive. Also, the important thing...
Yes, Debbie, I did see Nathan's e-mail from 2001 and acknowledged it with my "lively discussion" comment. Before seeing Dr. Norvel's comments (via Nathan) I...
The arguments cited by Norvell rely primarily on decades-old (1986 and 1994/5) morphology alone and are made better with the addition of contemporary molecular...
Regarding the question of posting comments of others, I do my best to ask if it's OK to post a direct quote. If it's not, then I do my best to restate it...
Michael, most excellent stuff! Thank You! The ideal exchange is when one has to hit the literature as a result of it. I knew the Mycologia papers, but the...
On behalf of Larry Stickney, I uploaded these morel bounty shots. http://tech.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/MushroomTalk/photos/browse/ccc0?c= Now, that's a...
James, I've uploaded your latest photos into your folder: http://tech.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/MushroomTalk/photos/browse/50cf?b=17&m=t&o=0 My understanding...
Here are some pics from 5/6/08 in the East Bay. This mushroom is one of the Spring psilocybe species that have been popping up here. They really like parks and...
All right, I concede, there are still BA mushrooms in fruit! As long as we still have irrigation and fog drip, we're gonna have mushrooms, even in the dry ...
James, that's an interesting Agaricus -- some of these species are rathe rinteresting. Have you considered saving some of these for further investigation?...
I've been staring for awhile at this mild, oak-loving Russula that seems to be neither basifurcata nor chamaeleontina/risigalina -- moreover, it has very...
Thats it! I've got a bunch of these from Los Trancos Open Space, under live oak. The closest they come to in Theirs' monograph is R. basifurcata, so that is...
Hi Doug, for the very same reasons that you state, I also thought that it might be basifurcata. Until I found the real basifurcata. After observing Russula for...
You guys would love Bart Byuck, the Belgian French mycologist, who made russulas exciting for an audience of decidedly non-Russula-loving myco-fans at the PA ...
Well, the ones I saw, if you want to see more details you can see them here: http://mushroomobserver.org/4807 You can see the yellow-tan gills, and how some...
Debbie, thank you for bringing that up -- never heard of NEMF before, but now I know what it is. Sounds very interesting. Know of Byuck, but have never made...
Yup, that's it. I'd reclassify it to Russula sp. and explain the matter --- nice page on the Observer! I will drag my spores photos, I have many from all 3-4...
