Galerina nana

An uncommon species found in mossy ground, track margins, humid zones, or among bryophytes on burnt ground.

Microscopic examination reveals a distinctive feature that makes it unique within its genus: spectacular crystal-encrusted metuloid cystidia, reminiscent of those found in Inocybe.

The studied specimen was collected in early winter in Muskiz (Bizkaia), on a road embankment within a previously burnt Eucalyptus globulus woodland.
