Lachnum
Margot en Geert Vullings, 17-05-2026 16:41
We found this Lachnum on an old Rubus stem.
Fruitbody:
Very hairy white outside, with a white-cream hymenium, with hairy stipe.

Structure:
Only textura prismatica observed, difficult due to the many long hairs.


Hairs:
Incrusted to the apex, therefore Lachnum.
Cylindrical, no/hardly thickened apex, no crystals.
Flank of hairs measured in water: Me = 148.2 µm
Edge of hairs measured in water: (119.7) 119.71 - 119.8 µm


Asci:
Measured in water: 41.6 - 47.9 × 5 - 5.09 (5.1) µm
Croziers + and IKI +


Paraphyses:
Lanceolate, full of guttules.
Width measured in water: (4.5) 4.6 - 4.7 (4.8) µm
Protruding above asci measured in water: (5.5) 5.52 - 9.17 (9.2) µm


Spores:
Cylindrical, sometimes narrower at one end.
Measured in water: (7) 7.4 - 9.5 (10) × (1.6) 1.7 - 2.1 (2.2) µm, Qe = 4.3


Using Baral's Lachnum key, we arrive at - - +, no crystals, no strong/medium refractive VBs, croziers +.
Subkey 5 -> Lachnum virgineum.
The only thing that doesn't quite fit is that the paraphyses should protrude 15-30 µm, we measure a max. 9 µm, and the width of the paraphyses should be 5-7 µm, we measure a max. 4.8.
Is it a different species after all?


Kind regards, Geert&Margot Vullings

Re : Lachnum
I have a bit problems. 

First My feeling is that the apos are a submature, with half-opened hymenia and still rather shortly protruding paraphyses.

Second, you say they are full of guttules, which look medium refractive, but you key out under VBs absent.

You may be right because L. virgineum may contain such numerous drops when young.

Measurements to 1/100 µm resolution should be edited by hand, this is nonsens. The hairs surely vary and may be measure 90-120 µm which would give a better hint on the species.

I think it is L. virgineum.
