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)


 * "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)


 * 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)


 * "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)


 * "are free" Jargon?
 * Added "from attachment" to clarify. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)


 * You don't mention the "disc" in the description section; just the bulb
 * Oops – fixed oversight. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)


 * "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)


 * "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)


 * "and lacks clamps." Clamps have yet to be mentioned.
 * Added. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)


 * The spore print isn't mentioned in the prose, but is in the box.
 * Added. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Sources look fine. More specific page numbers for the Desjardin source would be useful.
 * Done. Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

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)
 * Thanks for the review, I appreciate it! Sasata (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Everything looks good to me. Promoted. J Milburn (talk) 18:46, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
