Hello,

this is a Mollisia species.

No chance to say anything more, many details are lacking.

 

best regards,

Hello Joop,

 

when I looked at the posting, the last four pictures weren't there ....

But nevertheless, at least the KOH reaction is important, though I believe that it should be negative here. In that case you will end up with Mollisia cinerea s.l., which still is an aggregation of very similar species were I have not the total clue for separating the different taxa.

You can do the KOH reaction macroscopically by putting a fragment of the hymenium in a drop of KOH 20% on a slide which is lying on a white sheet of paper. You then can see a yellow sap yielding from the fragment (KOH positive) - or no change of colour (KOH negative).

You can also do that microscopically by preparing a small piece of the hymenoum in a water mount and then adding KOH at the side of the cover slip. You can watch through the microscope when the KOH reached your piece of hymenium: The vacuolar bodies in the paraphyses will be dissolved rapidly by the KOH reaching these paraphyses. The dissolving will either result in a yellow colouration (positive) or the mount will stay completely colourless (negative).

 

best regards,

Andreas
