サカゲチャヒラタケ
Crepidotus longicomatus Har. Takah., Mycoscience (2003) 44: 103-107
傘は逆立った長い毛に被われ、ケブカちゃんをヒラタケ型にしたような微小なきのこ(傘径 1-3.5 mm)です。チャヒラタケ属に近縁種はなく、系統的な類縁関係が全くわからない高尾山の謎の妖菌です。
子実体は真性の柄を欠き、厚壁な菌糸からなる長軟毛に被われた傘(径 1-3.5 mm)を形成し、胞子は蜜色、広楕円形で微細な疣状突起を持つ特徴があります。

Crepidotus longicomatus Har. Takah., Mycoscience (2003) 44:103-107
Basidiomata very small (1-3.5 mm in diameter), soft, sessile or with a short stipe, lateral
or sometimes dorsal, reniform to semiorbicular. Pileus densely covered overall with white to
pale yellow, erect, long hairs; margin at first incurved then straight. Flesh up to 0.2 mm thick,
white to pale yellow; odor indistinctive. Lamellae distant (6-10 reach the base), with 1-3
series of lamellulae, up to 0.5 mm broad, pale yellow; edges concolorous.
Basidiospores 6-8×4.5-5μm, [Q = length/breadth: 1.3-1.6, n = 20 spores per two
specimens], broadly ellipsoid, melleous in water, thick-walled, surface distinctly echinulate,
with concolorous spines 0.5-1 μm long. Basidia 20-35×7-8.5μm, clavate, two-spored.
Cheilocystidia and pleurocystidia none. Hymenophoral trama subregular to irregular; hyphae
similar to those of the pileitrama. Pileipellis composed of vertically arranged, parallel, long
hairs up to 1000 μm long, 3.5-8 (-10) μm wide, cylindrical, colorless or with pale melleous,
intracellular, granular pigments, with thickened walls up to 1.5 μm, occasionally with
clamped septa. Hyphae of pileitrama 4-10 μm wide, parallel to each other, cylindrical or
sometimes irregularly inflated, colorless or with pale melleous intercellular pigments, thin or
slightly thick-walled.
Known distribution: Japan (Tokyo).
Habitat: Solitary to scattered, on fallen dead twigs in lowland oak forests, from June to
July.
Specimens examined: KPM- NC0008716 (holotype), Mt.Takao, Hachiouji-shi, Tokyo,
Japan, June 20, 2000, coll. H.Takahashi; the same place, June 23, 2001, coll. H.Takahashi.
Japanese name: Sakage-chahira-take.
Notes: This species is characterized by its very small (up to 3.5 mm in diameter) reniform
basidiomata densely covered overall with white to pale yellow, erect, thick-walled, long hairs,
the melleous, echinulate basidiospores, the lack of hymenial cystidia, and its basidiome
formation on a fallen dead branch. These characteristics suggest that this species belongs
to the section Echnospori Pilat of the genus Crepidotus as defined by Singer (1986).
However, this species is distinguished from other known species of the genus by the very
small basidiomata with the pileus densely covered overall with erect, thick-walled, long hairs.
