Thanks for reviewing Dana; I've tweaked the prose issues that you found. Sasata (talk) 02:39, 4 October 2013 (UTC)
- Bay (color) redirects to Bay (horse), which I don't think is what you were going for, as the color bay in horses covers a wide range, from almost tan to almost black. Is there another link that describes the proper color? Dana boomer (talk) 14:01, 4 October 2013 (UTC)
- That's interesting ... I think that many mycologists believe that bay is a single color, as it is often used in mushroom descriptions. I've changed instead to reddish brown. Sasata (talk) 14:37, 4 October 2013 (UTC)
- Works for me. "Bay" in horses is a genetic thing producing a range of brownish colors with black points, rather than a specific shade, although the typical reddish/dark brown is the most commonly thought of. After that aside, now passing the article... Dana boomer (talk) 15:54, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

subluridellus
editI thought the specific epithet subluridellus deserved a footnote, viz. "Subluridellus: "a little bit yellowish". (luridus being "yellow, wan", luridellus being "a bit yellow" and with the prefix sub-, signifying "less than". Another editor reverted my contribution with the unanswerable retort "What the heck is that supposed to be?"--Wetman (talk) 16:45, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
