Slo.: lepljivi roiki - Habitat: Dry nutrient poor pasture, slightly southeast inclined mountain slope, shallow soil layer over settled scree, calcareous ground, dry and sunny place, exposed to direct rain, average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 620 m (2.000 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. - Substratum: completely rotten and moss covered stump of a small Picea abies. North side of the stump. - Comments: Photographed in a complete dry state, hence so red-orange. Growing solitary. Flesh hard in dry state. SP yellowish-white. 1-septate mature spores haven't been observed?? Spores smooth. Dimensions: 9.9 (SD = 0.7) x 4.1 (SD =0.3) micr., Q = 2.44 (SD = 0.14), n = 30. Motic B2-211A, magnification 1.000 x, oil, in water. - Ref.: (1) R.Phillips, Mushrooms, Macmillan (2006), p 350. (2) D.Arora, Mushrooms Demystified, Ten Speed Press, Berkeley (1986), p 674.

Slo.: rogasti roiki - Habitat: mixed woodland, nearly flat ground, cretaceous clastic rock (flysh), rain protected by trees canopies, in shade, average precipitations ~3.000 mm/year, average temperature 8-10 deg C, altitude 445 m (1.450 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. - Substratum: fallen rotten deciduous tree, probably Acer sp., partly debarked, covered with mosses. - Comments: Spore dimensions: 8.4 (SD=0.7) x 3.9 (SD=0.3) micr, n=30. No septa observed. Motic B1-211A, magnification 1.000 x, oil, in water. - Ref.: http://www.mushroomexpert.com/calocera_cornea.html . R.Lueder, Grundkurs Pilzbestimmung, Quelle & Mayer (2008), p 140.

Slo.: pahljaasta solzovka - Habitat: Dry mountain pasture with stumps and logs of cut down Picea abies trees, southeast oriented modestly inclined mountain slope, calcareous ground, full sun, fully exposed to precipitations, average precipitations ~3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 615 m (2.020 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. - Substratum: dead stumps and logs of cut down Picea abies in its initial stage of disintegration. - Comments: This is a very common species in Trenta valley. In wet and warm winters, like present one, one can see tens and tens of fruit bodies on a short walk through mixed woods. Fruit bodies have whitish inconspicuous rudimentary 'stalk' (point of attachment to the substratum). However, reliable distinguishing among different orange species of this genus without microscopy is difficult. Dimensions and number of septa of spores is important. - Growing solitary and in groups of confluent fruit bodies; more than a dozen of them scattered around; dimensions up to 6 x 4 cm and 3 cm thick; taste and smell indistinctive; SP abundant, yellow; many times growing together with Gloephyllum separium on the same logs. - Spores smooth. Dimensions: 18,7 [21,1 ; 21,9] 24,3 x 6,4 [7,1 ; 7,4] 8,1 microns, Q = 2,6 [2,9 ; 3] 3,4; N = 50 ; C = 95%, Me = 21,5 x 7,3 microns. Olympus CH20, NEA 40x/0.65, magnification 400x, in water.
