Sentences with GLEBA (5)
There is no question but that Camillea Bomba is cogeneric with Camillea Sagraena, but the gleba of the latter consists almost entirely of spores, while in the former there is considerably more hyphae remnants than spores.
The spores are borne on club-shaped basidia within the chambers of the fruit-bearing portion (_gleba_), and at maturity of the spores the stem or receptacle begins to elongate.
This pushes the gleba and the upper part of the receptacle through the apex of the volva, leaving this as a cup-shaped body at the base, much as in certain species of _Amanita_, while the gleba is borne aloft on the much elongated stem.
During this elongation of the receptacle a large part of the substance of the gleba dissolves into a thick liquid containing the spores.
This runs off and is washed off by the rains, leaving the inner surface of the gleba exposed, and showing certain characters peculiar to the various genera.
