needs to be rid of the nonsense of hair lengths being species indicators before epithets like cornea, auricula-judae, polytricha and fuscosuccinea can be applied sensically. we all know enough to know that macromorphology in this neck of the Auricularia woods is highly variable. maybe the work’s been done and I’m just not aware of it, but I’ve seen neither a monograph nor a key to date that doesn’t rely on obsolete notions of species parameters.
