Holotype:
THAILAND, Samut Sakhon Province, 7 Sep. 2019, C. Trakulnaleamsai, BBH 47826.
Habitat:
Decomposing rice straw.
Description:
Egg globose to subglobose, 40-50 mm in diam, dark grayish yellowish brown to light gray with a white mycelial rhizomorph arising from the base. Exoperidium papery, light brownish gray, mesoperidium gelatinous or lightly viscous, transparent to subtransparent, 3-5 mm thick, dark grayish yellow; endoperidium membranous, thin, white, covering the upper surface of gleba. Mature basidiomata 120-160 mm high. Cap campanulate, incurved toward the pseudostipe, surface very densely and merulioid-wrinkled, sticky, 10-30 mm high, 10-30 mm wide, light yellow or moderate yellow, apex round to truncate with an apical pore. Gleba light olive brown, mucilaginous. Pseudostipe 100-160 mm high, cylindrical, tapering, 13-35 mm wide at the base, 10-25 mm wide at the apex, white, fragile, soft and spongy, hollow. Indusium coarsely latticed, white, extended to ⅓ the size of the pseudostipe. The meshes of the indusium are large, polyhedral to round, 2-5 mm wide, the upper meshes larger than the lower meshes, the lower mesh margin wavy and thin. Volva subglobose, incurved toward the pseudostipe, 40-50 mm in diam., light brownish gray, scar surface, with mycelial rhizomorphs from the base. Odor fetid. Basidiospores 3.5-4.5 × 1.2-1.5 µm, subcylindrical to long-ellipsoid, subhyaline, smooth, thin-walled. Cap cells and hyphae, cells 10-50 µm in diam, globose to subglobose, hyaline, thin-walled, hyphae 2-3 μm wide, hyaline, thin-walled, septate, branched with clamp connections. Cell of pseudostipe 22-63 µm in diam, globose to subglobose, hyaline, smooth surface, thin-walled, bubble-like. Cell of indusium 20-57 µm in diam, globose to subglobose, hyaline, smooth surface, thin-walled, bubble-like. Volva hyphae; outer layer 3.75-10.0 μm wide, pale brown to brown, branched, smooth surface, thin-walled, septate with clamp connections; inner layer 1.2-7.5 μm wide, hyaline, branched, smooth surface, thin-walled, septate with clamp connections, swollen at the tip. Rhizomorph hyphae; outer layer 2.5-7.5 µm wide, hyaline to a pale brown, septate, branched, smooth surface, thick-walled with clamp connections; inner layer 1.2-7.5 µm wide, hyaline, branched, septate, smooth surface, thin-walled with clamp connections.
Culture characteristics:
Tissue germinated on PDA within 24 h. Colony was grown on PDA, immersed mycelium, reaching 2 cm in diam in 1 month at 25 °C, surface and reverse white to cream.
