Summary[edit]
| Description |
Lycoperdon subincarnatum Peck Image location: Buncombe Co., North Carolina, USA Habitat: growing in heavily shaded cypress mulch at the base of a raised garden bed that is walled with southern yellow pine. (It’s producing a bumper harvest of cucumbers.) Fruitbody: the large, sectioned spore case in the photo has a diameter of 3 cm. Exoperidium a dense reddish-brown fuzz aspiring to a height of 0.5 mm, which is also the thickness of the underlying shell of white peridium. When the fuzz is scraped away by fingernail, an underlying reticulate pattern appears, easily visible at 10×. In spent specimens the peridium remaining after spore discharge is dull ivory and wrinkled but not reticulate. Spore color: olive brown Although the growth on chips, fruitbody size, and crowded growth pattern are not a good match for typical L. subincarnatum, nothing else in Coker is a better fit. Is there a brown, Florida swamp species he overlooked? Used references: Coker & Couch. The Gasteromycetes of the Eastern United States and Canada Based on microscopic features: spores globose to subglobose 3-4.5 um, distinctly spiny in water; no pedicel observed
