Polyporus ciliatus Fr., syn.: Polyporus lepideus Fr.Fringed Polypore, DE: Maiporling, Bewinperter PorlingSlo.: etinasti luknjiarDat.: May 3. 2016Lat.: 46.35972 Long.: 13.70797Code: Bot_953/2016_DSC1784Habitat: Young riparian forest, Picea abies and Salix eleagnos dominant trees, next to a river; flat terrain occasionally flooded during high water levels of the river, calcareous, young alluvial ground; in shade, humid ground and air; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 530 m (1.740 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: fallen trunk of an old Salix eleagnos mostly not in direct contact with ground, still in bark, moss covered, in the late disintegration phase.Place: Lower Trenta valley, right bank of river Soa, between villages Soa and Trenta, next to the farm house Otokar, Trenta 4, East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC Comments: According to its species name Polyporus ciliatus should have distinctly fringed edge of the pileus. However, this was barely so with this find. Apparently this trait is not very reliable. However, very small pores, barely seen by naked eye (6 pores/mm measured) and appearance in spring clearly distinct it from very similar Polyporus brumalis.About 50 pilei found on two places. Growing solitary and in groups, occasionally two fruitbodies confluent at the base of the stipe; pilei diameter from 35 to 70 mm, pore layer thin, up to 3 mm; stipe 3 - 5 cm long, 4 - 6 mm in diameter, equal and somewhat thicker at the base; pilei surprisingly sturdy, quite hard to cut and chew; smell mild, pleasant, mushroomy; taste distinct, mushroomy, somewhat unpleasant; SP abundant, whitish-light beige, oac851.Spores smooth. Dimensions: 5,4 [6 ; 6,2] 6,8 x 1,8 [2,1 ; 2,2] 2,5 microns; Q = 2,4 [2,8 ; 2,9] 3,3; N = 30; C = 95%; Me = 6,1 x 2,1 microns; Qe = 2,9.

Polyporus brumalisWinter polyporeSlo.: zimski luknjiarDat.: Dec. 19. 2011Lat.: 46.34435 Long.: 13.56309Code: Bot_583/2011_IMG8267 Habitat: Light mostly broadleaf wood with scattered Picea abies, south oriented, relatively warm place, modestly steep mountain slope, cretaceous clastic rock (flysh) bedrock; humid, partly sunny, exposed to direct rain; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 8-10 deg C, elevation 490 m (1.600 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.Substratum: fallen deciduous tree trunk, rotten but still partly in bark; possibly Fagus sylvatica. Place: Bovec basin, north of Mala vas, at the foot of Mt.ukla, 1.756 m (5.761 feet), East Julian Alps, Posoje, Slovenia EC Comment: Winter season and habitus of this observation speak in favor of Polyporus brumalis. However, spore dimensions and pore shape correspond better to Polyporus arcularious, which is a spring mushroom according to almost all references I found. Krieglsteiner (Ref.(3)) states that transition forms between both are frequent. According to Donk they are named Polyporus brumalis f. subarcularious, Donk, Medded. Nedl. Mycol. Ver. 18-20: 133 (1933). Index Fungorum considers this name as a synonym of P.brumalis. What is the latest word about somewhat ambiguous taxonomy of these two difficult to separate species is unknown to me. Interestingly the mushrooms where completely frozen when photographed, nevertheless after a day at room temperature they sporulated abundantly. Growing in a group of about 25 fruitbodies on a single about 4 m long log. Pileus diameter from 2.5 cm (one inch) to 6 cm (2.5 inch). Flesh tough, when dry very hard. SP abundant, light gray-whitish (oac893). Cap brown-gray (oac 639), pores surface beige (oac793), stipe brown (oac743) with some white mycelium at the base. Smell indistinctive.Spore dimensions: 7.2 (SD = 0.4) x 2.6 (SD = 0.2) micr., Q = 2.77 (SD = 0.21), n = 30. Ref.:(1) A.Bernicchia, Polyporaceae s.l., Edizioni Candusso (2005), p 459.
