This is species was newly described in 2004 and was possibly been recorded in the past as a variety of Amanita vaginata or Amanita fulva but is now a separate species. It is always found under Birch, has a dull brown colour rather than the grey of A.vaginata or the rich bright brown colour of A.fulva. Like all members of the Amanitopsis group, it does not have a ring but does have brown zig zag markings on the stipe. The volva (the “egg shell” at the stipe base) is not ochreous spotted and microscopically it contains numerous large sphaerocysts or large round cells (Kibby, 2011). Found in Annascaul: Sacred Heart Church (Q597019) on 31 st October 2012. Arrhenia griseopallida (Desm.) Watling This small species with thick decurrent gills can smell very strongly of pelargonium despite its small size. Noted microscopically by having clamps and long narrow spores. Widely although not commonly recorded in Great Britain, it is surprising it has not been recorded in Ireland before and is possibly overlooked. For photos, see http://www.leifgoodwin.co.uk/Fungi/Arrhenia%20griseopallida.html or http://www.biopix.com/arrhenia-griseopallida_photo-97891.aspx. Galerina atkinsoniana A.H. Sm. This is an overlooked species rather than a rare species. For good photos, see http://www.hlasek.com/galerina_atkinsoniana.html. It is distinguished by having 1, 2 and 4 spored basidia and numerous cystidia in the cap (pileocystidia). The latter feature distinguishes it from G.vittiformis. Found in Lough Adoon at Q528070 on 11 th November 2012. Hebeloma collariatum Bruchet This species is very rarely recorded in the British Isles. It is not accepted in the Checklist of the British Isles as there are no voucher specimens in the Kew herbarium (Legon and Henrici, 2005) but the FRDBI does list 23 records from England. It was distinguished as a small 17
