Melbourne ID Request - a strange p. sub? or something else?
    #14537478 - 05/30/11 07:43 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Habitat:
Shady, moist, garden bed rich in wood chips. Melbourne Victoria.

Gills:
light brown alternating free to adenexed

Stem:
White, 60-70mm tall, 5-7mm thick, equal, usually straight, and growing upright. Base is a VERY rich blue BEFORE being picked.

Cap:
15-25mm diameter, convex, smooth, no umbo to very slight umbo on oldest sepcimens, Dark-brown fading to light-brown/tan with age. Distict white rim which turns dark blue on being handled. Cap seems too small for the stem, with adolescent specimens looking like oversized pins.

Spore print color:
Dark purple-brown

Bruising:
Rich blue

Other information:



Some photos in situ would be best, but my camera battery died.. maybe in a few days

MYSTERY SOLVED!!

I was struck by the differences between these and the ones I find locally in Gisborne, and the fact that the pics above are completely consistent with other finds I have made previously in the Bay of Plenty: much smaller, light tan colour, prominent nipple, less waviness in the cap; whereas here in Poverty Bay they are considerably larger, often darker more (deep) caramel colour, absolutely no nipple, really wavy inverted caps.

Way stronger too (Poverty Bay/Gisborne).

Are they really the same? I'm not convinced. Do local conditions have this much influence? I have always found it strange that locally I have never seen the prominent nipple in Gisborne that is evident throughout so many other photos on the NZ threads. In fact the subs I am familiar with locally are very rounded on top when pinning, tending towards being concave as they mature, the opposite of the nipple, as in this pic:

These are from Gisborne: (no nipple on pins, indented cap, much darker colouration etc)






HELLO!!! THIS IS THEM EXACTLY!! it seems to be a PHENOTYPE of p.sub common in New Zealand in the Poverty Bay/ Gisborn area.. usually way stronger.. NICE!!
