Phellodon niger (Fr.: Fr.) Karst.Black Tooth, DE: Schwarzer Duftstacheling, Schwarzer KorkstachelingSlo.: rni plutozobDat.: Sept. 14. 2014Lat.: 46.36049 Long.: 13.70043Code: Bot_837/2014_DSC4228Habitat: young mixed forest on alluvial deposits of nearby mountain torrent, Fagus sylvatica and Picea abies dominant trees; slightly southeast inclined terrain, calcareous ground; relatively warm and dry place, in shade, partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 630 m (2.070 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: moss covered forest soil under Picea abies. Place: Lower Trenta valley, between villages Soa and Trenta, right bank of river Soa, between Trenta 2b cottage and abandoned farmhouse Strgulc, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC Comments: In Germany Phellodon niger has already disappeared from many historically known locations in and around industrial regions (Ref.:2.). The causes are acid precipitations, other airborne toxins and eutrophication of forest ground. The species is worldwide distributed but rarely common. It is generally in sharp decline and much endangered in Europe (Ref.:2). About 20 pilei growing solitary and in groups of several partly confluent fruit bodies; pilei diameter 5 - 8.5 cm, spines are dense and from 2 to max 3 mm long; stipe is not well defined, interwoven with surrounding organic ground debris, about 1-2 cm in diameter and 1.5 cm long, tapering toward the base, looking like a thick root; taste mild, mushroomy, not bitter; smell indistinctive; flesh corky-woody, charcoal black; SP whitish-beige, oac851.Spores coarsely warty. Dimensions:3,6 [4 ; 4,1] 4,5 x 3,1 [3,4 ; 3,6] 3,9 mm; Q = 1 [1,1 ; 1,2] 1,3; N = 30; C = 95%; Me = 4 x 3,5 mm; Qe = 1,2. Olympus CH20, NEA 100x/1.25, magnification 1.000 x, oil.

Hydnellum peckii Bank.Devil's Tooth, DE: Scharfer KorkstachelingSlo.: Peckova jeevkaDat.: Oct. 9 .2013Lat.: 46.39976 Long.: 13.70130Code: Bot_759/2013_DSC8511Picture file names: from Hydnellum-peckii_raw_1 to Hydnellum-peckii_raw_5.Habitat: mixed wood, Picea abies and Fagus sylvatica dominant trees; almost flat terrain at the bottom of an Alpine valley; calcareous ground, in shade; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 5-7 deg C, elevation 980 m (3.200 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: forest soil.Place: Zadnja Trenta valley, left bank of (dry) Soa river bed, south of the last pastures, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC Comments: I am always impressed by these drops which are exuded by some mushrooms. They do this when they are in an intensive growing phase and need a lot of minerals. Hence there remains much of superfluous water which is secreted in the form of drops. Some drops are crystal clear, some golden yellow or milky and some are bright red like with Hydnellum peckii and very similar Hydnellum ferrugineum. Pilei of Hydnellum species are of very irregular and variable form and color. Therefore determination is frequently a problem. Yet, Hydnellum peckii has a very sharp, burning, long lasting taste, which cannot be overlooked, just on the contrary, one will remember it forever.Hydnellum peckii is not a common find in Slovenia. In the Netherlands it was considered extinct already in 1950; in former East Germany territory it was considered extinct in 1970, in today's Germany it is in sharp decline and highly endangered. In Slovenia it is not protected (yet?).Fungi were growing solitary and scattered; four pilei were present on an area of about 4-5 m2, the largest seemed to be actually a cluster of several fused pilei since it had three, more or less separate stalks; pilei dimensions up to 11 x 5.5 cm; taste sharply burning; SP abundant, beige-ocher with pink tint, oac846.Spores coarsely warty and of irregular shape. Dimensions: 4,9 [5,5 ; 5,7] 6,2 x 3,8 [4,2 ; 4,4] 4,9 microns; Q = 1,1 [1,3] 1,5; N = 30; C = 95%; Me = 5,6 x 4,3 microns; Qe = 1,3. Olympus CH20, NEA 100x/1.25, magnification 1.000 x, oil; in water.

This goes by names such as Woolly Tooth and Zoned Cork Hydnum. Assuming that the European species is the same as here in the Pacific Northwest of North America.

Comments: Once all teeth fungi belonged to the genus Hydnum. Scientists believed that hymenophore of this unusual kind represents a trait, which guarantees a common ancestor. Today we know this conviction was a failure. Based on DNA analyses, old Hydnum members are presently placed in several genera, some of them are phylogenetically far apart. The teeth hymenophore has developed independently on several branches of phylogenetic tree. Old species Hydnum concrescens is presently placed in the genus Hydnellum. The fungus is very variable and, at the same time, very close to another member of the same genus Hydnellum scrobiculatum. Many mycologists state that a reliable distinction between both taxa, based on morphology alone, is impossible. The main difference between both taxa are size and shape of their spores. Hydnellum concrescens is supposed to have somewhat smaller spores. Several sources also claim that it is in mycorrhizal relation with broad leaved trees while Hydnellum scrobiculatum prefers conifers. The fungus is according to most sources rare, everywhere in sharp decline (Ref.: 2) and protected in several countries.Growing sometimes solitary, but mostly in groups and confluent (see Fig. 3; a pileus with 5 stipes). Pilei diameter from 4.5 to 8.5 cm; smell strong, mushroomy; taste indistinctive, slightly mushroomy; flesh strong, pliant, rubbery-corky; SP reddish-brown, oac701.Spores are irregularly sub-globose with very large irregular warts. Dimensions (measure without warts): (3,5) 4 - 5,1 (6) (2,9) 3,4 - 4,4 (5,9) m; Q = 1 - 1,3 (1,4); N = 30; Me = 4,6 4 m; Qe = 1,2.
