Happy to offer a review; I can't imagine that there will be any major problems. J Milburn (talk) 22:40, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"in what was then known as the Kingdom of Prussia" Why not "in what was then the Kingdom of Prussia"?

Yes, that's better, changed. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Do we know the etymology of tenerrima or carpophila? farinellus, at least, is pretty obvious- perhaps they'd be worth mentioning along with the first mention of them? If you don't think it's important, feel free to ignore me.

Added etymology for tenerrima; the farinellus epithet is from an obscure synonym, so don't think it's necessary; not sure if carpophila is from from Greek -karpion, from karpos fruit, or Modern Latin from Greek karpos (harvest), so left this one out. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"The cap color is pallid gray with a whitish margin when young, but soon becomes white overall." How about "The cap is pallid gray with a whitish margin when young, but soon becomes white overall."?

Yes, changed. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"are free" Jargon?

Added "from attachment" to clarify. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You don't mention the "disc" in the description section; just the bulb

Oops – fixed oversight. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"The spores are broadly ellipsoid, amyloid, with dimensions of 8–10 by 5–6.5 µm." Listy rather than prosaic?

Tweaked prose. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"sometimes forked at time" What does this mean? "sometimes become forked over time", perhaps?

Changed to "the projections are sometimes forked." Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"and lacks clamps." Clamps have yet to be mentioned.

Added. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The spore print isn't mentioned in the prose, but is in the box.

Added. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sources look fine. More specific page numbers for the Desjardin source would be useful.

Done. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The pictures are fine; generally seems like a solid article, and a good candidate for GA status. J Milburn (talk) 23:03, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review, I appreciate it! Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Everything looks good to me. Promoted. J Milburn (talk) 18:46, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
