location
Lower Trenta valley, between villages Soča and Trenta, near farm house Skokar, Trenta 2, East Julian Alps (Posočje, Slovenia)notes Slo.: vodenasta livka - syn.: Agaricus fritilliformis Lasch, Agaricus phaeophthalmus Pers., Clitocybe fritilliformis (Lasch) Gillet, Singerocybe phaeophthalma (Pers.) Harmaja, Clitocybe hydrogramma (Bull. & A.Venturi) P.Kumm. - Habitat: Predominantly Fagus sylvatica forest with some Picea abies and Ostrya carpinifolia; moderately inclined mountain slope, southeast aspect; calcareous, colluvial, skeletal ground covered by leaf litter; fairly dry place; in shade; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 555 m (1.829 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. - Substratum: Fagus sylvatica leaf litter on ground. - Comments: Clitocybe phaeophthalma is quite a common mushroom in Slovenia. It is poisonous since it contains muscarin. Quite interesting is its smell. My impression was: distinct, hard to say on what, but not unpleasant. This contradicts to most descriptions found in literature available to me. While its taste is described quite consistently as unpleasant and bitter (such was also my observation), the descriptions of its smell vary wildly. In the literature one can find following statements: unpleasant, on chicken run, on wet chicken, on chicken house, on roses, on honey, sweet-rancid, strongly sourish, stale… Apparently all other traits of this find fit well to the descriptions of this species. - Growing scattered, more than 10 pilei on a few square meters of forest ground; pilei diameter 3 – 6 cm, stipe length 3 – 5 cm, stipe diameter 4 – 8.5 mm, hollow, fibrous; taste unpleasant, bitter; smell distinct, hard to say on what, not unpleasant; a lot of mycelium at the base of the stipe among rotten leaves; SP white, oac900. - Spores smooth. Dimensions: (5.4) 5.5 - 6.7 (7.1) × (3.5) 3.7 - 4.5 (4.7) µm; Q = (1.2) 1.3 - 1.6 (1.8); N = 30; Me = 6.2 × 4.2 µm; Qe = 1.5.
