North Kerry Waxcap Survey 2012 - the Northern Ireland Fungus Group

Recommendations

Info

tongues are almost impossible to identify in the field and must be microscopically checked. Trichoglossums can however sometimes be recognised as with a hand lens, the black setae stick out like small needles on the stem. T.walteri is distinguished by the much more common T.hirsutum by spores that are 7 septate instead of 15 septate. Found at Glennahoo on 04/11/2012 at Q551081. For a photo, see http://www.flickr.com/photos/21189203@N05/2081615731/. Other Notable Records – non-Target Species Agaricus impudicus (Rea) Pilát This agaric can be quite dark and scaly, sometimes vinaceous in colour when young with the squamules spreading out as the cap expands. If sliced, the flesh is almost unchanging but the lamellae bruise red especially when young. It is also noted for small spores in the range of 4.5 – 7 x 3.2 – 4.2 µm. Known mostly as woodland species, in the west of Britain, it is also found in grasslands and was found on this survey at Dunmore Head on 30/10/2012 at V307982 and Inch dunes on 6 th November 2012 in the fixed dunes on the eastern side of the peninsula. For a photo, see http://www.aranzadi-zientziak.org/micologia/a or http://www.errotari.com/Micologia/especie.php?1007. There are a reasonable number of records for this species in Ireland but the habitat is worth commenting on. Bjerkandera fumosa (Pers.) P. Karst. The Big Smokey Bracket. This bracket was found on Gorse Ulex europaeus at Lough Adoon on 09/11/2012 at Q523088. Note the brown line between the flesh and the pores rather than a black line which is typical of the more common Bjerkandera adusta. This latter species has a line concolorous with the smoky pores. The other distinguishing features are its pale cap colour and slightly smaller spores. The pores on this specimen were darkening on other parts of the fruiting body. Only one other record in the FRDBI for this species on Gorse. Rarely recorded in Ireland with two modern records by Roy Anderson from Belvoir Forest in Belfast in 1991 and by Neil Sinnot from Dunlewey Demesne in Donegal in 1970 (FRDBI). Older records are by Rev Lett from Narrow Water Forest in Down in 1883 and by John Templeton “near Belfast” in 1840. There are records from the 1880’s for Dublin and Wicklow quoted in Muskett and Malone (Muskett and Malone, 1980) but their references do not seem correct. It is not mentioned in one article (Pim and McWeeney, 1893) and the other could not be sourced. 22
Coprinopsis ammophilae (Courtec.) Redhead, Vilgalys & Moncalvo A small ink cap found in bare sand in foredunes. Found here at Gowland Strand amongst marram at the very dune front at Q561123 on 05/11/2012. There are only 17 records of this species from Great Britain in the FRDBI. Found twice on the West Donegal survey in 2009 from Portacurry dunes at B71531774 and Ballymastocker Dunes at C252379. Also found at Mullaghmore Dunes in Sligo on the BMS foray in 2000. Coprinopsis semitalis (P.D. Orton) Redhead, Vilgalys & Moncalvo A rarely recorded but attractive inkcap that proved to be quite common on the Dingle peninsula. Microscopically it is very distinctive as their spores have a loosening outer coating (the perispore) that loosens and makes it look like the spores have wings! Found at Mullaghveal at Q469069 on 29/10/2012, Glennahoo at Q551081on 04/11/2012 Faha Grotto at Q492120 on 05/11/2012, St Brendan's Church, Clogher at Q931132 on 08/11/2012 and Lough Adoon at Q528070 on 09/11/2012. 23
