INFORMATION PROVIDED WITH THE PHOTO
  • date of photo  Apr 21, 2013
  • latitude 46.33573   longitude 13.56733     View on Google Maps.
  • location   Bovec basin, on southwest slope of the hill Rabeljnik, East Julian Alps (Posočje, Slovenia)
  • notes   Slo.: navadna žveplenjača, drobceni različek - Habitat: Light, mixed, predominantly hardwood woodland, moderately south-west oriented hill side, cretaceous clastic rock (flysh), partly protected from direct rain by the log and tree canopies, mostly in shade, average precipitations ~3.000 mm/year, average temperature 8-10 deg C, elevation 490 m (1.600 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. - Substratum: a large log of (most probably) a deciduous tree laying on ground, in the last stage of disintegration. - Comments: Growing solitary and in clusters, pileus diameter 1.5-3(4.5) cm, stipe 2-3.5(5) cm long and curved, 4-8 mm in diameter; taste very bitter, long lasting, not burning; smell indistinctive mushroomy; flesh brittle, fibrous; SP dark brown with purple-violet tint (oac526). Smaller fruitbodies than of typical form, spring time growth and solitary appearance (in addition to clustered growth) should distinguish this subspecies from standard form of H. fasciculare var. fasciculare. H. fasciculare is common where I live, however it is most frequent in autumn and about twice as large. I've never seen so small fruitbodies so early in the season yet. - Spores smooth, dark, brown with violet tint, with pores. Dimensions: 6.5 (SD = 0.4) x 4.3 (SD = 0.3) μ, Q = 1.5 (SD = 0.07), n = 30.
