Gasterocarps 9-23 mm broad, globose to flattened, dry, white developing greenish blue stains, becoming pink with maturity. Gleba white at first, becoming chocolate brown, very moist and firm to cartilaginous. Arising from a sterile base with white interior when young, becoming deep brownish pink with maturity.

1-3 cm broad, irregularly globose to subglobose to ellipsoid, white staining pale blue green, subtomentose to subglabrous. Peridium thin, white staining blue green. Gleba, finely loculose, white at first, soon cinnamon brown. Gelatinous stipe base with inconspicuous columella in some, staining blue green.

Gasterocarps 6-22 mm broad, globose to subglobose to somewhat flattened, matted to subtomentose to subfibrillose to almost matted squamulose, white with brown fibrils, with some pale red to pale greenish areas. Gleba dark brown, marbled with meandering white trama, moist and somewhat gel-like at first, becoming minutely loculose with exposure. Without apparent basal attachment or columella.

Gasterocarp 3.5-4 cm broad, somewhat flattened, dry, squamulose scaly with center of scales a pale olive green, otherwise matted fibrillose, yellow (4A8). Peridium thin (up to 1 mm). Gleba pale olive green at first, then pinkish brown, finely loculose, with a cartilaginous/gelatinous sterile zone above the turbinate basal attachment; this latter chrome orange inside and out and continuous with peridium. Spores globose to subglobose, thick-walled, with low, obscure cyanophilic warts or plaques.

See 8789. Gasterocarp 2.5-5 cm broad, globose to irregular in outline, finely matted subtomentose, deep orange (5A-B8), sometimes cracking from pressure, developing pale greenish stains with handling. Interior gelatinous, with gel filled locules, and irregularly ramifying sterile columellar tissues. Peridium thin, entire. Arising from orange rhizoids and a sterile base that is isolated from gleba proper. Gleba colored a pinkish buff (6C4) at first, becoming dark brown (6F8) with age.

Gasterocarps 7-15 mm broad, dry, white, soon pinkish brown. Gleba olive green to olive brown, rubbery gelatinous with white cartilaginous sterile tramal tissue arising from sterile base; rhizoids attached to base. Peridium white, slowly pinkish brown with exposure.

Gasterocarps 9-15 mm broad, subglobose to globose to sometime flattened, dry, very finely matted, bright golden orange, becoming very lightly cyanescent (lens). Gleba brown to black, lobed and loculose within the lobes, dry and empty becoming somewhat gelatinized with age. Sterile basal columella present, white to pale yellow, unchanging, with fine basal rhizomorphs.

2.5 cm broad, irregularly globose, dry, golden orange, developing dull, light green stains with handling. Gleba almost lobed, brown, loculose, with copious gel/moisture, with sterile basal, orange columella, with orange rhizomorphs. Peridium flesh yellow to orange. Odor sweet, almost of bubble gum.

Gasterocarps 5-10 mm broad, globose to subglobose to irregularly lobed in outline, dry, bright orange, matted fibrillose, developing pale olive stains with age. Gleba dark brown, moist, not appearing loculose with a lens, with fine ramifying white tramal tissue, with an orange to yellow basal columella sometimes reaching half way into gleba, with peridium yellow to pale orange, sometimes invaginating into gleba, with orange rhizomorphs present at basal attachment.

1. 27/11/2020 Ngare Ndare Forest floor, coming off tree roots GIS coordinates 0.154677° 37.371978°
2. Record the types of growth: in clusters from the same base tree root, grouped with stipe.
3. Means of attachment stipe
4. Cup shape umbilicate and the margin of the cup smooth inrolled
5. You may look at the gills – subdistance gills
6. stipe is eccentrically attached, it is striated, it is the same colour as the gills whether creamish when young or dark ochre in older mushrooms , there is no ring
7. The cap is a dark rich shiny russet brown, and underneath is cream when young and russet orange in older fungii
8. spore print not sucessful
