Mycena auricoma H. Takah., Mycoscience 40: 73-80, 1999　　　　　　　　

  Etymology: auri- = golden-yellow in Latin; coma = hair tuft in Latin: referring to yellowish

orange flocci enveloping the whole basidioma.

  Primordium 0.5-2 mm in diam, hemispherical, with a discoid stipe, enveloped in orange

(5A6-5A7) to yellowish orange (4A6-4A7) flocci. Pileus 15-25 mm in diam, at first

hemispherical, then subfusiform, expanding to campanulate or obtusely conical, finally plane

but often narrowly subumbonate, radially plicate-striate almost to the disk, often split in

places along the lines of the lamellae, pale yellow (4A3) under yellowish orange (4A6-4A7)

flocci, yellowish orange (4A6-4A7) to orange (5A6-5A7) furfuraceous over the center,

orange (5A6-5A7) at the crenulate-pruinose margin. Flesh very thin (up to 1 mm in the

center of the pileus), yellowish white (4A2) to whitish, odor and taste none. Stipe 20-30×1-

2 mm, 1-1.5 mm above, almost equal or slightly enlarged at the base, central, slender,

terete, brittle, hollow, covered with yellowish orange (4A6-4A7) flocci as on the pileus,

yellowish orange (4A6-4A7) to orange (5A6-5A7) furfuraceous toward the dark orange

(5A8) base, yellowish white (4A2) to white pruinose at the apex, without basal mycelium and

disk. Lamellae free, subdistant, L = 30-45, 1-3 mm broad, thin, white, edge ascending, pale

orange especially near the margin of the pileus.

  Spore print pure white. Basidiospores 5-7×3-4 μm, colorless, smooth, ovoid-ellipsoid to

ellipsoid, pale grey to dark grey in Melzer's reagent (weakly amyloid), thin-walled, without

germ pore. Basidia 15-20×6-8 μm, clavate, four-spored. Cheilocystidia forming a compact

sterile edge, pyriform or ventricose to lageniform with filiform appendages, colorless or pale

yellow, with thin to slightly thickened walls up to 0.5 μm, smooth, inamyloid; main cell bodies

30-50×7.5-20 μm; appendages 20-150×1.5-4 μm, filiform, flexuous, simple, colorless,

tapering to an obtuse or subacute apex. Pleurocystidia none. Trama of pileus and lamellae

composed of long-celled inflated hyphae 500-1500×15-50 μm, with the ends attenuating

into narrow septa, accompanied by a few uninflated and short-celled hyphae, walls thin,

smooth, colorless, inamyloid. Surface of pileus a poorly developed narrow cutis of parallel,

repent hyphae 30-80×6.5-15 μm, often with indistinctly clamped septa, walls thin, smooth,

pale yellow, inamyloid, not gelatinized. Dermatocysts of pileus numerous, dispersed,

decumbent, pale yellow, smooth, inamyloid, walls 0.5-1.5 μm thick, arising directly from the

cutis hyphae; main cell bodies simply clavate to pyriform (30-45×7.5-15 μm) or irregularly

cylindric to strangulated (40-150×5-12.5 μm), sometimes with a secondary septum;

appendages 50-250×1.5-6 μm, long, flexuous, filiform, simple, tapering to an obtuse or

subacute apex. Surface of stipe thinly coated with parallel, repent hyphae 5-10 μm wide,

often with indistinctly clamped septa, walls thin, smooth, pale yellow, inamyloid, not

gelatinized. Dermatocysts of stipe similar to those of the pileus but shorter and paler at the

apex of the stipe. Trama of stipe composed of longitudinally running, spindle-form hyphae

1000-2500×15-30 μm, walls thin, smooth, colorless, inamyloid.

  Habitat: Solitary on dead fallen twig of Quercus serrata Thunb., from June to October,

not common. Distribution: Japan (Kanagawa, Saitama). 

  Holotype: CBM-FB-16150, on a dead fallen twig of Quercus serrata Thunb. in lowland forest (60 m alt.), 

Yamato-shi, Kanagawa-ken, 3 Sept. 1996.

  Japanese name: Kogane-hanagasa (first collected and named by Mr.Minoru Aoki).

  Notes: This species is well characterized macroscopically by the yellowish orange flocci

on the pileus and stipe, the delicate, plicate- striate pilei, the insititious stipe lacking a basal

disc, the white, free lamellae and the lignicolous habit, and microscopically by the colorless,

amyloid basidiospores, the cheilocystidia often with filiform appendages and the thick-walled,

non-diverticulate dermatocysts tapering into filiform appendages apically. The combination

of these features suggests that it belongs to Mycena section Radiatae in the sense of

Singer (1975, 1986). However, its yellowish orange flocci enveloping the whole basidioma

distinguish the present fungus from other known species of the section Radiatae.

  “Trogia” crinipelliformis Corner (1996) from Malaysia, which would belong to Mycena

section Radiatae following the Singer's system (1986), seems to be most closely allied with

M. auricoma. The former, however, has an acutely umbonate primordium, reddish orange

(not yellowish) tones in the fibrillose flocci on the pileus and stipe, inamyloid basidiospores,

and cheilocystidia with occasionally branched appendages.

  Although numerous primordia occur initially, only a few grow into mature basidiomata.

The expanded basidiomata make basidiospores only for one night and soon collapse.
