Gelatinous stump feet ( Crepidotus mollis )

Systematics
Class : Agaricomycetes
Subclass : Agaricomycetidae
Order : Mushroom-like (Agaricales)
Family : Crack fungus relatives (Inocybaceae)
Genre : Stump feet ( Crepidotus )
Type : Gelatinous stubby feet
Scientific name
Crepidotus mollis
( Schaeff. ) Perennial

The inedible for humans, saprobiontisch living Gallertfleischige crepidotus ( Crepidotus mollis ) is a species of fungus in the family plan fungal relatives (Inocybaceae). The pale ocher-colored, mussel to kidney-shaped fruiting bodies have grown sessile on the substrate, the lamellae are dirty brown and the spore powder is brown. The fruiting bodies appear all year round on dead hardwood, most often they are found between August and October.

features

Macroscopic features

The domed hat is 2–6 cm wide and shell to kidney-shaped. It has grown silless to the side of the substrate. The surface is bare to fine tomentose and dirty whitish to creamy-gray-brownish. There are also olive brown shades. The edge of old specimens is more or less puckered. The smooth, transparent skin of the hat is removable and elastic like a rubber.

The tightly standing lamellae grow together like a stalk in a lateral point. They are initially greyish-white, later a dirty brownish color and, with age, cinnamon-colored. The spore powder is tobacco brown.

A stem is usually absent, but when a tiny, rudimentary stem is present, it is finely tomentose. The gelatinous, glassy-looking meat is pale to olive-brown and smells inconspicuous. The taste is mild and not very characteristic.

Microscopic features

The elliptical to almond-shaped spores are smooth and measure 6.5–9 × 4.5–6 µm. The almost filamentous cheilocystids are sometimes somewhat bulbous, thickened or head-shaped.

Species delimitation

With its gelatinous hat meat, the gelatinous stumpfoot is an exception within its genus and is therefore easy to identify. The other species can usually only be determined with certainty under the microscope. The calolepis variety differs from the type in that it has a scaly hat. All other types of stumpefoot have dry hats and are much smaller and thinner. Other similar genera with gelatinous hat meat, such as the dwarf balls ( Panellus ) or the mussels ( Hohenbuehelia ), differ in their white spore powder.

ecology

The gelatinous stumpfoot can be found in beech and mixed beech forests , in shady slope and oak-hornbeam forests as well as in floodplain and swamp forests , moors and poplar forests . It is also very rare in coniferous and coniferous forests, preferably spruce. The soil-vague fungus was also found in hedges, on the edges of forests and in parks. The fruiting bodies of the saprobiont often grow like roof tiles on top of each other on hanging and lying branches or stumps, more rarely on living trunks. The fungus grows on various deciduous, more rarely on coniferous trees. It is most commonly found on red beech, followed by ash, poplar, willow and oak. But it can also grow on numerous other deciduous trees. The fruiting bodies appear all year round, they are most common from August to the end of October, only in spring they are quite rare.

distribution

European countries with evidence of finding of the gelatinous stumpfoot.
Legend:
green = countries with found reports
cream white = countries without evidence
light gray = no data
dark gray = non-European countries.

The mushroom was found in Australia, New Zealand, South, Central (Costa Rica) and North America (Canada, USA), in Asia (Asia Minor, Caucasus, Siberia, China, Mongolia, Japan, North Korea and South Korea), North Africa, in the Canary Islands and Madeira as well as in Europe.

In the south of Europe the stumpfoot is widespread from the Iberian Peninsula to the Black Sea. It was also found on the Mediterranean islands of Mallorca and Sardinia. It is common and common throughout Western Europe and occurs northward in Great Britain to the Hebrides . Its distribution area extends over all of Central Europe and extends in the east to Russia. In the north, the fungus is distributed throughout Fennoscandinavia and in Estonia and Russia in the northeast. In Sweden it can be found north up to the 65th parallel.

In Germany the species is widespread and at least partly quite common.

meaning

The gelatinous stumpfoot is not an edible mushroom.
