Slo.: črneča velezračenka - Habitat: Light, mixed, predominantly hardwood woodland, dominant Fagus sylvatica, Picea abies, Quercus sp., Fraxinus excelsior, Corylus avellana; nearly flat terrain, cretaceous clastic rock (flysh), partly rain protected by trees canopies, mostly in shade, precipitations ~3.000 mm/year, average temperature 8-10 deg C, elevation 480 m (1.575feet), alpine phytogeographical region. Substratum: a large stump and roots of a cut down tree in its final stage of disintegration; tree species undistinguishable; most probably Fagus sylvatica, but possibly also Quercus sp. (several trees growing in the vicinity). Place: Bovec basin, Humčič hill, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC Comments: Growing solitary (probably a single mycelium), however in three groups of pilei on the same tree; they were about 1 m (3 feet) apart, the largest group about 40 cm (16 inch) in diameter; taste strong, mushroomy, unpleasant; smell slightly unpleasant, indistinctive; flesh strongly fibrous; SP whitish; pore surface bruising when handled, first ochre, then brown, then blackish, but not fast, the process takes several ten minutes. Spores smooth. Dimensions: 5.7 (SD= 0.3) x 4.8 (SD= 0.2) μ, Q= 1.2 (SD= 0.06), n= 30. Olympus CH20, NEA 100x/1.25, magnification 1.000 x, oil, in water.AmScope MA500 digital camera.

Christ. - Habitat: Old, mixed wood, Picea abies dominant; locally almost flat terrain, calcareous ground; in shade, fairly humid place; partly protected from direct rain by tree canopies; average precipitations 1.600-1.800 mm/year, average temperature 8-9 deg C, elevation 740 m (2.450 feet), Dinaric phytogeographical region.Substratum: on wood of a tree stump covered by mosses; in the final stage of disintegration; species undetermined but probably Picea abies or Abies alba. Place: North of Cerknica lake; SE of village Laze pri Gornjem jezeru; between hills marni gri, 768 m and Sovinek, 780 m, Notranjska, Slovenia EC. Comments: Steccherinum subcrinale is a loosely attached to its substratum, resupinate, effused teeth fungus. It can be distinguished from other Steccherinum species (in my region Steccherinum ochraceum and Steccherinum fimbriatum) by short, from (0.2)0.3 to 0.5(0.6) mm long cylindrical aculei (spines or teeth). Alternative species have pointed, conical (and mostly larger) 'spines'. The same seems true for similar species of genus Irpex. Steccherinum subcrinale also never forms shelf-like, small pilei but remains strictly resupinate.Steccherinum subcrinale is a rare species everywhere in Europe and denoted 'extremely rare' in Germany (Krieglsteiner 2000), Italy (Bernicchia 2010) and north Europe (Eriksson et al 1984). It is listed neither in Poler ed. 1998 nor in Ogris 2008 for Slovenia. Unfortunately, at the time I photographed this observation I was unaware what it might be and I didn't take samples to do microscopy and make exsiccate. Hence the determination remains uncertain although macroscopic traits from photos seem to fit quite good.Ref.: (1) G.J.
