Right, I'll jot some queries as I go....Casliber (talk · contribs) 14:53, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

  • Anything at all can be added about infrageneric relationships? Big genus....
  • Unfortunately, the authors did not include any molecular work in their study, and did not discuss infrageneric relationships. Else Vellinga, in her "Nomenclatural Overview of Lepiotaceous Fungi (Agaricaceae) Version 4.8 (2010)" speculated that it might be in the "Leucoagaricus/Leucocoprinus clade", but even though she is a recognized authority on the genus, I didn't feel it warranted a mention here (I doubt she's seen the species in hand).

  • There are alot of caps in the early sentences of the description section. Any way any can be folded in would be great...might not be possible but would be good if could be done....
  • Good point. I reworded a few. Sasata (talk) 23:35, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
  • There are alot of bamboo species - are there any more specific details of bamboo genera hosts etc.? No mention of soil type or flat/swampy/montane/hilly terrain etc.
  • There's 22 species in Kerala State apparently, but the authors didn't mention anything more about habitat than what is already in the article. Sasata (talk) 23:35, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
  • No speculation on edibility at all....?

Other than that, a nice tight read....Casliber (talk · contribs) 15:01, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
