DAVFP: 29373

Fungus name: Daldinia loculata (Lév.) Sacc.

Host name: Betula papyrifera Marshall

Year of collection (y-m-d): 2016-07-24

Map coordinates: 62.5200°N, 109.1700°W

Collector: Sterenberg, V.

Determiner: Callan, B.

Collection location: East Arm, Great Slave Lake, N.W.T.

Remarks: Near Hoarfrost River homestead owned by the Olesen family. Sample growing on fire-killed Betula papyrifera from 2014 wildfire burn. Species flushed in June 2016. Threw spores roughly 7days following sample collection. Birch trees in area were heavily populated with fungus, growing on both fire-killed and fire-damaged trees. Collector was unaware that presence of insect species proximal to fungus was of interest to researchers. Site revisited, but no insects observed during short time spent there.

Collection location: Sustut Provincial Park and Protected Area, B.C.

Remarks: on ground with Salix stolonifera Coville; field collection 17; raw potato smell, one cluster and one singleton; Ammirati says "The C. hinnuleus complex is still in need of careful study but your sequence data places your collections 17, 30, 33, 34, 37 close to C. hinnuleus var. minutalis according to a recent e-mail from Kare. This taxon can have a strong earthy odor, which you described as potato-like in field collection 17. Morphologically your collections are similar except for 30 which has a silky fibrillose pileus surface and a rather different aspect, together with somewhat smaller, more subgloboid basidiospores. In general, collection 17, 33, 34, 37, while morphologically similar to C. hinnuleus var. minatulis, have somewhat larger spores than this taxon. In Europe this is an alpine and arctic taxon with Salix. "

Collection location: Motase Peak (near Shelagyote Peak), B.C.

Remarks: on ground with Salix stolonifera Coville; field collection 60; cap shiny purple brown; stem upper part purple; odour raw potato; Ammirati says "This is a fairly frequent species of arctic and alpine habitats with Salix. Your field collection 60 fits in general with the morphological features of C. subtorvus, however, your material lacks the characteristic heavy white veil and the basidiospsores are longer than normal for this taxon. More material from the field would be helpful here, especially since this is a widespread species in arctic/alpine habitats."
