Type : Dark brown belt foot
Scientific name

( Pers. ) Fr.

The dark brown belt foot ( Cortinarius brunneus ) is a leaf fungus from the family of the veil relatives (Cortinariaceae) whose entire fruiting body is more or less dark brown in color. His hygrophan hat is quite fleshy and bluntly hunched. The universal veil remains on the handle as a whitish belt. The meat is also dark brown to blackish brown. The species is often interpreted differently and sometimes narrower and sometimes broader, so that the descriptions of different authors often contradict each other. The black-brown or acorn-brown belt foot ( C. glandicolor ) is today (as of 2018) as a variety ofC. brunneus viewed. Like all veils, the dark brown belt foot is a mycorrhizal fungus that is associated with conifers (predominantly with spruce, less often with pines). The species is distributed almost all over Europe. In northern Europe the species is common, in southern and central Europe it is usually only found in the mountains.

features

Macroscopic features

The initially bell-conical, but soon spreading hat measures 3–8 cm and usually has a clearly separated, fleshy hump. It is dark brown in color and sometimes has a blackish or purple tinge. The fine-grained, cracked hat skin is more or less dry and, as with all belt feet, turns black to black-brown with a drop of caustic potash . The somewhat hygrophanic hat pales a leathery yellow color when drying. The brim is often dirty whitish veil remains covered.

The dark brown, more or less the same color, thick and very wide lamellae are quite distant. The lamellar surfaces are veined more or less vertically. They are bulging and often bulky at the bottom. The spore powder is cinnamon to rust brown.

The slender, club-like stem measures (4) 7-11 × 0.5-1 (2) cm. Like the hat, it is dark brown in color and coarsely grained lengthways and has one or two indistinct, whitish, later pale brownish belt zones.

The meat is dark brown throughout, it can only be a little lighter in the base of the stem. According to M. Bon, it has a faint, pleasant odor that is somewhat reminiscent of the fragrant belt foot ( C. torvus ). Others describe it as almost odorless to slightly earthy-radish-like. The meat tastes mild or sometimes slightly radish-like.

Microscopic features

The elliptical spores are finely ornamented or punctured and measure 8–11 (13) × 6–7.5 (8) µm.

Species delimitation

The dark brown belt foot is a typical representative of the species-rich group of belt feet ( Telamonia ). Within the subgenus, the spruce companion is one of the larger and more common species. Its typical features are: blackening flesh, a more or less pronounced hump, the initially white, later darkening velum and the wide, distant lamellae. An important, microscopic feature is a dense palisade of sterile cells on the blade edge.

The black-brown belt foot ( C. glandicolor ) is very similar, and today it is only regarded as a variety of the dark brown belt foot. It is rarer and differs through the more densely standing lamellae, the more delicate habit and the slightly smaller spores. Other similar species are the blackening water head ( C. rubricosus ) and the broad-leaved water head ( C. crassifolius ). Both can be recognized by their blackening flesh. In contrast to the dark brown belt foot, its handle has no belt zone. Another similar species with blackening flesh is the olive-brown water head ( C. uraceus ). But it usually has a much thinner stem.

Ecology and diffusion

European countries with evidence of finding of the dark brown belt foot.
Legend:
  • Countries with found reports
  • Countries without evidence
  • no data
  • non-European countries
  • The dark brown belt foot has been found in North America and Europe. The veil is widespread in Europe and quite common overall. In the south it can be found from Spain via Italy to Bulgaria (western Balkan mountains, Vitoshar region , western Rhodope Mountains). It has also been found across the UK. The fungus is common in Northern Europe. In Norway it can be found up to the 69th parallel, in Sweden up to the 68th parallel, in Finland it is widespread as far as northern Lapland. In Austria and Switzerland, the species rises in the Alps to over 2000 m. Within the group of girdle feet / water heads, it is one of the more common species.

    As a typical companion to spruce, the dark brown belt foot is particularly common in mountain coniferous forests, in the flatlands it is rather rare. In addition to its most important mycorrhizal partner , the spruce , the veil can also partner with pines. The fungus prefers acidic and moist soils, the glandicolor variety should also grow in drier locations.

    Systematics

    In 1801 the dark brown belt foot was scientifically described by the mycologist Christiaan H. Persoon . He gave it the scientific name Agaricus brunneus , this name was sanctioned by Elias Fries mentioning it in his work Systema Mycologicum . Without this sanctioning, the Persoon basionym would be invalid today, as it is with Agaricus brunneus Schaeff. (1774) gives an older homonym . In 1838 Elias Fries placed the taxon in the genus Cortinarius , so that it received its species name that is valid today. Since then, botanists and mycologists have tried again and again to split the species-rich genus Cortinarius into several genera. This led to numerous homotypical synonyms. 1866 classified Otto Wünsche in his book Die Pilze. A guide to the knowledge of the same frieze subgenus Telamonia up to genus and gave the taxon the name Telamonia brunnea. In 1891 the German botanist Carl Kuntze put the taxon in his newly created genus Gomphos in his Revisio generum plantarum (a revision of the plant kingdom) . and finally MM Moser placed the veil as Hydrocybe brunnea in the genus Hydrocybe (Fr. ex Rabenh.) Desires in his Kleine Kryptogamenflora von Mitteleuropa (1953) (an important determinant of the European fungal flora) .

    The taxon Cortinarius glandicolor (Fr.) Fr., originally described by Fries as a separate species, contributes further synonyms, which was downgraded in 1992 by Håkan Lindström and Jacques Melot to the variety of C. brunneus .

    In 2008 a Finnish working group led by Tuula Niskanen examined the Brunnei section . To study the phylogenetic relationships, they used rDNA-ITS sequences and compared the results with the morphological data. They came to the conclusion that C. glandicolor and C. brunneus are separate species and neotyped C. glandicolor , for which no type was previously defined. In addition, they described two new species, Cortinarius caesiobrunneus and Cortinarius clarobrunneus , which are also closely related to the dark brown belt foot . According to their investigation, C. glandicolor differs from C. brunneus in the slimmer fruiting body and a mostly less pronounced universal veil (Velum universale), which rarely forms a pronounced belt on the stem. C. glandicolor can colonize drier locations, seems to be less strictly bound to spruce and is instead more common on pines. C. clarobrunneus has the same habitus as C. brunneus , but has a paler stem, smaller spores, no pronounced veil belt and grows in pines ( Pinus sylvestris ). C. caesiobrunneus, on the other hand, is much slimmer, has no veil and has narrower spurs.

    meaning

    Basically, all belt feet are classified as suspected of being poisonous, so the dark brow belt foot is not an edible mushroom. How many of these species are really poisonous is not known.
