Dat.: Nov. 3. 2016
Lat.: 46.35962 Long.: 13.70446
Code: Bot_1026/2016_DSC6356
Habitat: mixed wood, Fagus sylvatica and Picea abies dominant trees; moderately inclined mountain slope, southeast aspect; skeletal, colluvial, calcareous ground; in shade; relatively warm and dry place; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 560 m (1.840 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: on soil, covered by forest ground humus, mainly rotten leaves of Fagus sylvatica.
Place: Lower Trenta valley, between villages Soča and Trenta, right bank of river Soča, near Skokar farm house, Trenta 2, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC.
Comments: Naming members of genus Tuber is a problem for me. Different sources have different approaches. I am following Index Fungorum (current name Rhizopogon aestivus (former Tuber aestivum)). This disagrees with MycoBank and Ref.: 2, 6 and 7. Also, according to Ref.:2, molecular analysis showed no differences between Tuber aestivum and Tuber uncinatum. Therefore they are synonymized or T. uncinatum considered as a variety as a variety of T. aestivum. Another taxon - Tuber mesentericum - is very similar to Tuber aestivum. When old they are hard to separate (Ref.2). They have been synonymized or considered a Tuber aestivum variety by some authors; however molecular analysis showed that they are two different species (Ref.2).
Macro and micro traits of this find correspond well to Rhizopogon aestivus = Tuber aestivum. However, a possibility that the find is Tuber mesentericum cannot be completely excluded according to Ref.2. Although a hypogeous fungus, I found it only half-buried in forest ground humus and Fagus sylvatica leaves. I noticed it without any digging. This sometimes happens when animals dig them for food and then leave them there uneaten. Tuber aestivum is mycorrhizal with roots of several trees, almost certainly with Fagus sylvatica in this find. But when fruitbody becomes larger than about 1 cm in diameter they can thrive further also on ground as a saprophytic fungus (Ref.:1).
Orange blobs on the surface of the Tuber are a parasitic anamorph fungus. The fusiform conidia obviously belong to genus Fusarium (Ref.:3).
Growing solitary; fruitbody quite old (over-mature), 38 mm across; surface covered with black, large, 4-6 sized pyramidal warts; no cavity at the bottom seen; the pattern of white veins seen in cross-section does not correspond well to usual pattern for this species (too few and too coarse), but this can be explained by over-maturity of the fruitbody (numerous fine veins disappear with age according to Ref.: 1); smell indistinctive, not strong, which often happens with over-ripen fruitbodies (Ref.:2); taste not tested; spore mass dark brown, almost black.
Spores very coarsely reticulated; about 3 meshes across front view, ridges up to 6 microns high. Ascospores' dimensions (without reticulation): 20 [25.2 ; 26.9] 32.1 x 14.7 [19.9 ; 21.7] 26.9 microns; Q = 1.1 [1.2 ; 1.3] 1.4; N = 51; C = 95%; Me = 26 x 20.8 microns; Qe = 1.3; gleba consisting almost entirely from spores. Asci (remnants of them) seen only at few places (see picture 3M). Olympus CH20, NEA 40x/0.65, magnification 400x; fresh material; in water. AmScope MA500 digital camera.

Jaina Lefevre just filters out everything else and hugs her knees, focusing hard on what's going on below. "Please..mom...please. Take him down...come on..."
Jonathon Coage slowly walks up, a tired and angered gleam in his eye as he walks with the swagger of well trained and all buisness soldier about to rip a mans arm off and beat him to death with it. The stubble on his face is evidence of the rough days behind him, and the sight before him lets his tired mind know they're not over yet. He gives a slight nod to simon before taking his place next to Esha, his cold blue eyes silently following the action of his commander.
Kimani Silvercloud skitters down toward Jaina when Leigh moves off, rocks rolling down the Hil she comes to a stop next to Jaina and reaches for her hand, wanting to hold it tight
Esha Rajal dropped the spent cigarette on the ground and stomped it out with her boot. She pointed down the hill and replied to Ember, "Major's taking a beating from some UAC guy." She wrapped one arm behind Jon to give him a little squeeze at his arrival, but otherwise kept her eyes focused on the action below.
Deets Carroll keeps her shotgun trained on the UAC freak, although her attention is largely on the fight. Her knuckles are white.
Roaman Enzo hearing Esha turns around and gives a look. "That's enough Ms Rajal"
Ember Ronas looks where Esha points and falls silent for the time being. Her friend was smoking, that means now was not the time to try and be cute about matters. Of course, silence never lasted long with Ember and after a few moments in her own head she leaned over and muttered, "Anything I can do?"
Jaina Lefevre doesn't even notice the reach, but she squeezes Kimi's hand and keeps watching. "Mom said he was just using me to get to her." she says to Kimi. "They were setting her up. Well, now she's gonna take him down."
Kimani Silvercloud gives a quick reassuring sqeeze back, her eyes dark with worry "Yeah, dont worry, he's gonna go down"

Slo.: polobla kosmatinka
Dat.: Sept. 07. 2014
Lat.: 46.36846 Long.: 13.74757
Code: Bot_834/2014_DSC3758
Habitat: locally north oriented mountain slope, mixed wood, locally Picea abies dominant, calcareous ground, among needles and leaf litter, ground without greenery; full shade, humid place; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 6-8 deg C, elevation 800 m (2.625 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: forest soil under Picea abies canopies.
Place: Lower Trenta valley, lower Trenta village, just above the beginningof alpine trail to Planina Lepoč, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC
Comments: Habitat and habitus of these cup fungi fit very well to Humaria hemisphaerica. Also spore shape, surface and gutules do so. The species is a common one. At least in my literature I can't find an acceptable alternative determination. However, spore and asci dimensions do not correspond to data from literature. I don't know whether the differences observed are acceptable (data from literature have quite large scatter too) or this find represents another, probably rarer and seldom described species.
Growing in a few groups of more than 30 fruit bodies in an area of about 2 x 2 m; apparently associated whit Lycoperdon perlatum. Some cups seemed as attached to this fungus (see Fig.3) and I didn't find a single cup more than a quarter of meter away of more than ten fruitbodies of Lycoperdon. Pilei diameter 8 - 22 mm, like translucent, pearly inside; taste and smell indistinctive; SP too faint to allow color determination.
Spores warty with two large gutules each. Spore dimensions: 25.4 [27.1 ; 27.8] 29.6 x 13.8 [14.5 ; 14.8] 15.5 μ, Q = 1.7 [1.8 ; 1.9] 2; N = 37 ; C = 95%, Me = 27.5 x 14.7 μ; Qe = 1.9. Asci dimensions: 205.4 [231.4 ; 244.8] 270.8 x 13 [15.4 ; 16.6] 19 μ, Q = 12.9 [14.5 ; 15.4] 17; N = 24; C = 95%, Me = 238.1 x 16 μ; Qe = 14.9. Hairs septated. Dimensions: 339 [505 ; 621] 787 x 13 [15.2 ; 16.8] 19 μ, Q = 20.1 [31.6 ; 39.6] 51.1; N = 15; C = 95%, Me = 563.5 x 16 μ; Qe = 35.6.

This is a research publication produced by the Faculty of Health Sciences of SFU and a photograph I took at the Riverview Hospital site in Coquitlam BC appears on the front cover of this publication. It is a 91 page research document that covers a wide area of research pertaining to the relocation of patients from this Hospital into the community. The communities considered in this document are in Kamloops and Vernon and the impact that the relocation has had on not only the communities, but on services, patients, families etc. The efforts made by the stakeholders, collaborators, organizations, and the community will have an effect on the lives of these individuals. Information sharing and communication are vital to addressing the needs of the people who live in the poorest postal code in Canada.
