Pretty mushrooms. Review to follow soon. J Milburn (talk) 08:50, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

"Microscopically, P. auricoma is characterized by the long, thick walled, golden hairs called setae in its cap cuticle." Slightly awkward, but this phrasing suggests that setae are "long, thick walled, golden hairs", when those are the characteristics specifically of P. auricoma setae
Fixed. Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
"coprinoid genera" Great word, but a little jargony. Could we have a link?
Glossed a short def. Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
"caulocystidia, pileocystidia" Undefined jargon in the taxonomy section. I appreciate that this is difficult...
Now linked/defined. Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
"As the mushroom matures, the outer edges of the cap turns greyish, while still retaining a reddish-brown center" Needs rewriting
Done. Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
"The gills do not auto-digest (deliquesce), like some other coprinoid mushrooms." Probably best to explain what this means.
Done. Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
"the coprini" Does this mean the same as "coprinoid taxa"?
Yes, changed. Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
"Similar Parasola species include the common and widespread P. plicatilis,[12] P. leiocephala, P. lilatincta, and P. kuehneri. Only microscopy will definitively separate the latter three from P. auricoma—none of them have setae on the cap.[19][20][21]" How do we differentiate P. plicatilis?
Oops, meant all four – changed. Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
There seems to be a fairly heavy use of personal sites, as opposed to properly published sources, but that's not a big deal for GAC as long as you're happy that these are genuine mycologists.
K. Uljé was widely recognized as an expert in coprinoid taxa (and has many publications), so I have no problem using his website to source info on these species. Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
I'd also be inclined to say that the lead is a little short, but it's up to you if you want to expand it.
Added a bit. Thanks for the helpful comments and for another review! Sasata (talk) 15:59, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
Hope this is helpful. J Milburn (talk) 09:37, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
