features
Macroscopic features
Athelia singularis , like all species from the genus of the tissue skin ( Athelia ), forms whitish to cream-colored, thin fruiting bodies with a smooth hymenium and inconspicuous to fibrous edges. They are resupinate, that is, they lie directly on the substrate, and can easily be removed from it.
Microscopic features
Athelia singularis has a monomitic hyphae structure that is typical of tissue membranes , that is, it has only generative hyphae that serve the growth of the fruiting body. The hyphae are hyaline and thin-walled. They almost always have buckles and are 3–3.5 µm wide. The species does not have cystidia . Their basidia are hyaline, club-shaped, 22–30 × 7.5–8.5 µm in size and grow in tufts. They have a buckle at the base, they have four sterigmata . The spores of the fungus are elongated, ellipsoidal, 8–14 × 5–6 µm in size, smooth and thin-walled, and hyaline. They have a distinct extension.
distribution
The known distribution of Athelia singularis only includes the type locality near the Russian Krasnoyarsk .
ecology
Athelia singularis is a saprobiont that attacks the Siberian larch ( Salix sibirica ).
Systematics
Athelia singularis was first described by Erast Parmasto in 1967 and is related to Athelia fibulata .
