Others, including Pegler and Fiard (1978) and Lodge and Pegler (1990) placed H. hypohaemacta in subg. Pseudohygrocybe sect. Firmae, though Cantrell and Lodge (2004) noted the resemblance of trama

structure to subg. Hygrocybe and suggested that molecular phylogenies were needed to resolve placement. Neotropical collections identified as H. hypohaemacta will need a new name as the spores differ somewhat in shape and size and the LSU sequences diverge by 12.6 % from the SE Asian sequence. AZD5582 cost Hygrocybe roseopallida is included in sect. Velosae based on moderate molecular support and shared characters, i.e., subglobose to broadly ellipsoid macro- and microspores, a glutinous peronate pseudoveil, cortinoid connections between the lamellar edge and stipe apex partly

formed by vacuolated pseudocystidia emanating from the lamellar edge (Lodge and Ovrebo 2008). Although Corner (1936) stated that the glutinous layer of the pileus margin was not connected to the stipe in H. hypohaemacta, a projecting glutinous BVD-523 margin is visible on the pileus, a vague glutinous annulus is visible in photos of the H. hypohaemacta collection from Crenigacestat supplier Malaysia that was sequenced, and a glutinous annulus can be seen in a photo of H. aff. hypohaemacta from Puerto Rico (Fig. 25 insert). Pseudocystidia emanating from the lamellar edge in both H. aff. hypohaemacta and H. roseopallida that form the inner fibrous portion of the veil are shown in Fig. 6. Inner fibrous and outer glutinous veil elements were clearly visible in the type and other collections of H. roseopallida (Lodge Leukocyte receptor tyrosine kinase and Ovrebo 2008). Fig. 6 Hygrocybe (subg. Hygrocybe) sect. Velosae. Pseudocystidia emanating from the lamellar edge, which contributes to an inner, fibrous pseudoveil: a. Hygrocybe aff. hypohaemacta (BZ-1903); b.

appalachianensis (Hesl. & A.H. Sm.) Kronaw. (as ‘appalachiensis’), in Kronawitter & Bresinsky, Regensb. Mykol. Schr. 8: 58 (1998). Pileus usually viscid or glutinous, often perforated in the center. Basidiospores and basidia dimorphic; ratio of macrobasidia to macrospore length usually < 5, macrobasidia expanded in upper part, typically broadly clavate or clavate-stipitate; lamellar trama hyphae parallel, long or short, with or without oblique septa; pileipellis a cutis, disrupted cutis or trichoderm, overlain by a thin to thick ixocutis which if ephemeral then leaves a thin patchy gelatinous coating on the cuticular hyphae.
