Nolanea cetrata f. minimospora |
Nolanea is a genus of small grey to brown pink-spored mushrooms which are mostly saprophytic and grow on the ground. The cap can be conical, convex or umbonate in shape, often with a silky top. The gills have adnexed to adnate attachment (they can also be a little decurrent) and the stalk is fragile and often hollow. The spores are angular and are flesh colored to pink. Nolaneas are well known for being boring and difficult to identify.
Very little is known about the edibility of Nolaneas, and some are poisonous.
