Apparently 3 differently structured zones on the light pore surface (darker when dried - last photo): surface flat nearest stipe; central band reticulate; to margin, longitudinally striate (‘gilled’) with finer reticulate structures between

Fruit had a mushroom shape, with quite a strong, woody stem and attachment.
Upperside was white, with centre area brown. As the fruit aged, the entire upper side of the cap turned a dark chestnut brown.

Underside was very interesting, composed of densely packed teeth, which tapered to a fine point. These Teeth were quite robust with little flexibility, though softened in older specimens. Teeth travelled down the stem quite a distance, particularly on the under portion of the stem.

Largest caps were 3-5cm across. 4-6cm long, but would be longer as the stem curves upward (almost into a U shape on some).

Also had almost root like lengths of mycelium joining several pairs of mushrooms together. when a fruit was removed, these very tough lengths of mycelium remained attached pulling away from the branch intact.

Collected: Sample OAM24.

This much rarer species has also been described to me as Cantharellus concinnus but its form is so different that I struggle to think of it as being the same. Like the previous posting, the location is a general guide only. Two images.

Her is the description of C. camphoratus ;
Cantharellus camphoratus R.H. Petersen, Figs. 2G–2I
MACROMORPHOLOGY: Pileus:20–75mmdiameter,edgesevenly round and inrolled, opening up to become plane, then funnel shaped, with an irregularly wavy margin; opaque, not hygrophanous; variously covered with thin layer of flat scales, which often disappear; deep yellow, scales brownish. Hymenium: folds flat to moderately deep with blunt edges, close, some- what sinuous, strongly decurrent, forked and becoming cross-veined; light yellow, cream to whitish. Stipe: 5 –25 mm × 30 – 65 mm, enlarging upwards from narrow base, solid; deep yellow to greyish orange. Context: white or whitish yellow, immediately violaceous with FeCl3, then slowly turning greyish; odour fruity, resembling apricots. All tissues stain reddish-brown with injury or prolonged exposure. Fruiting bodies are relatively im- mune to invertebrate parasites, and remain over a month in the field in good condition. If the hymenium is ex- posed (no or low moss or a low layer of duff), fruiting bodies may fuse to make a polycephalic or single massive fruiting body, cap development may be arrested beyond the stipe to produce peg-like fruiting bodies, and the hymenial folds become underdeveloped as flat, short, undulating ridges with multiple anastomoses, even absent. Habitus then varies from solitary pegs, to connate, cespitose or fused fruiting bodies.

Cap dark orange-brown with scales. Pores and stipe vibrant yellow. Stipe club shaped.
Near instantaneous blue staining when cut. Blue staining more prominent near on the cap and base of stipe. Deep red colouring at base of stipe.
Growing in a clearing near one small eucalyptus
