Features
Macroscopic characteristics
The Purple Zystidenkeulchen fruktifiziert predominantly tufted. The unbranched, cylindrical or flattened fruit bodies are 1.5-5 mm wide and reach a height of 2.5-12 cm. The color spectrum ranges from purple, gray - purple to purple brown, and pink - ocher-colored specimens do occur.
Microscopic characteristics
The hyphae have a diameter of up to 15 micrometers. On the buckle loose basidia mature elliptical and somewhat flattened adaxial spores. They measure in length 6-10 (-15 ) microns and 3-5 microns in width. The surface of the fruiting body is also covered with thick-walled, tapered and 45-130 × 5-9-15 microns large cystidia.
Ecology and phenology
The Purple Zystidenkeulchen growing on bare ground or in the grass and usually happens under the fir trees. The discovery in the Bavarian Forest National Park succeeded in mid-August 2009 on the edge of a spruce bog under the carpet with a moss -covered, acidophilous border areas along a drift trench. The site is located at 845 meters above sea level.
Dissemination
Outside Germany, the Purple Zystenkeulchen occurs in France, Denmark, Great Britain, Austria, Czech Republic and Sweden.
System
The Purple Zystidenkeulchen was in the Otto Friedrich Müller in 1780 out given issue 14 of the panel work Flora Danica depicted by an illustration of his brother Christian F. Müller Clavaria purpurea and sanctioned by Elias Magnus Fries ' " Systema mycologicum, Volume 1 " from 1821. Bryn TM Dent Ingersoll and David J. McLaughlin stated 2006 the phylogenetic affiliation of the way of the bristle -like Scheiblingkirchen ( Hymenochaetales ) to. As a result, presented the two American scientists, the new genus Alloclavaria (in the sense of "the other Clavaria " ) and combined the taxon to.
