At higher elevations, two or three fruit bodies may arise from one stipe. Colored various shades of reddish- to yellowish-orange, the cap surface is broken into scales, with the spaces between more yellow and the scales themselves more orange. The most colorful specimens occur in warm humid weather. Older specimens are often paler. The white flesh is fibrous and thick, though thins with age. Somewhat brittle, it can sometimes turn brown when cut or bruised. The smell has been reported as


title: "Turbinellus floccosus" content: indistinct or "earthy and sweet", and the taste "sweet and sour". The spore-bearing undersurface is irregularly folded, forked or ridged rather than gilled and is pale buff or yellowish to whitish in color. These ridges are up to high, and are decurrent—they extend below and run down the cap's attachment to the stipe, though irregularly so. The spore print is brownish, the spores ellipsoid with dimensions of 12.4–16.8 × 5.8–7.3 μm. The spore surface is roughened with ornamentations that can be made visible under the microscope by staining with methyl blue. The fruit bodies can last for some considerable time,


title: "Turbinellus floccosus" content: growing slowly over a month. Mushrooms in subalpine and alpine areas are typically heavy-set with a short stipe, their growth slower in the cold climate. This latter form is seen at lower altitudes in colder seasons. Smith gave this the name forma "rainierensis". Conversely, mushrooms at low altitudes, such as in the redwood forests, can grow and expand rapidly with large caps that have prominent scales. Smith described a paler form with a solid stipe from the Sierra Nevada as forma "wilsonii". American mycologist R. H. Petersen described an olive-capped form that is otherwise identical to the typical form. These


title: "Turbinellus floccosus" content: forms are not recognised as distinct. The related "Turbinellus kauffmanii", found in western North America, is similar-looking but has a pale brown cap. Younger specimens of the latter species also have a pungent smell. "Turbinellus fujisanensis", found in Japan, is another lookalike that has smaller spores than "T. floccosus". The fungus appears to form symbiotic (ectomycorrhizal) relationships with various conifers including Douglas-fir ("Pseudotsuga menziesii"), fir ("Abies") species such as momi fir ("Abies firma"), European silver fir ("A. alba") and Khinghan fir ("A. nephrolepis"), Pine ("Pinus") species such as "Pinus densiflora" and western hemlock ("Tsuga heterophylla"). In Mexico, the fungus associates


title: "Turbinellus floccosus" content: with "Abies religiosa"—the mycorrhizal association between these two species has been synthesized under controlled laboratory conditions. "T. floccosus" is more abundant in older stands of trees and places where there is more decomposed wood on the forest floor. The species occurs in coniferous forests in North America, particularly the western states in late summer and autumn. It is most abundant in rainy parts of the Pacific Northwest, northern California and the Sierra Nevada. It also occurs across Asia, having been recorded from Japan, North Korea, China, Tibet, India, Nepal and Pakistan. "Turbinellus floccosus" has been occasionally recorded from introduced conifer


title: "Turbinellus floccosus" content: plantations in Australia. "Turbinellus floccosus" is poisonous to some people who eat it, but has been consumed without incident by others. Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea may occur, though are sometimes delayed by up to 8–14 hours. A tricarboxylic acid known as α-tetradecylcitric acid may be responsible for the extreme gastrointestinal symptoms. Laboratory experiments showed it increased tone of guinea pig smooth muscle of the small bowel (ileum), and that when given to rats, it led to mydriasis, skeletal muscle weakness, and central nervous system depression. "Turbinellus floccosus" contains more than double the amount of this acid than the related "T.


title: "Turbinellus floccosus" content: kauffmanii". Despite its toxicity, "T. floccosus" is one of the ten wild mushrooms most widely consumed by ethnic tribes in Meghalaya, northeast India, and is highly regarded by the Sherpa people in the vicinity of Sagarmatha National Park in Nepal. What is not known is whether the Indian populations of "T. floccosus" are nontoxic, or whether the local people have developed an immunity to it. It is also enjoyed in Mexico. American mycologist David Arora reported that some enjoyed it while he felt it had a strong sour taste. The fruit body of "T. floccosus" produces oxylipin (biologically active lipids


title: "Turbinellus floccosus" content: generated from fatty acids) that have antifungal activity against the plant pathogens "Colletotrichum fragariae", "C. gloeosporioides", and "C. acutatum". Extracts of the fungus have shown in standard laboratory tests to have antimicrobial activity against several human pathogenic strains. "T. floccosus" also contains the spermidine derivative pistillarin, a bioactive compound that inhibits DNA damage by hydroxyl radicals generated by the Fenton reaction. Pistillarin is responsible for the green color obtained when iron salts are applied to the fruit body surface. Turbinellus floccosus Turbinellus floccosus, sometimes known as the shaggy, scaly, or woolly chanterelle, is a cantharelloid mushroom of the family Gomphaceae

It is often mistakenly called "St Jacob's". The confusion arises because Swedish, like many other languages, uses the same name for both "James" and "Jacob". Arguably the most central church in the Swedish capital, surrounded by the popular park Kungsträdgården, the Royal Opera, the square Gustav Adolfs torg; and near Sergels torg, the Royal Palace, and governmental office Rosenbad, the parish of the church was limited to 150 souls in the late 1980s, and

The church took a long time to complete. As a consequence it includes a wide range of architectural styles, such as Late Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque. The building is based on the design of multiple architects over the centuries: Willem Boy (1580–93), Hans Ferster (1635–43), Göran Joshuae Adelcrantz and Carl Hårleman (1723–35), Carl Möller and Agi Lindegren (1893–94). The origin of the church dates back to a chapel belonging to the Solna parish (Solna Municipality now being one

It is first mentioned in 1311, and archaeological excavations in 1948 and one more recently documented its location just south of the present church and reconstructions showed its extent was limited to 8×13 meters. The parish itself is believed to be a century or so younger than the chapel as the church is first mentioned as "ecclesia parrochialis" in the 1430s. For defensive purposes the demolition of the church, together with other churches on the ridges surrounding the medieval city, was ordered by King

It is therefore believed the church was built in brick rather than wood, since the king needed bricks for his defensive structures. However, in 1580 King John III ordered a church to be rebuilt on the same location, as part of his attempt to incorporate the urban conglomeration on the northern ridges into the city. Construction on the present church was led by master-builder Heinrich van Huwen and started in 1588. As completed by the time for the death of John III, the design of Willem Boy (c. 1520-1592) included a central nave

Charles IX's intentions to make the northern subsurbs (today's Norrmalm) an independent city motivated him to order the church to be lengthen by two bays in 1630. The first Over-Governor of Stockholm ("överståthållare") Klas Flemming employed master mason Hans Ferster and stone-cutter Heinrich Blume in 1633, which resulted in the star-ribbed vaults completed in 1642. The following year the southern portico was begun by Blume together with the Renaissance gables of the transepts later destroyed in the fire of 1723. The church could finally be inaugurated November 26, 1643, in the

A new central tower designed by Göran Joshuae Adelcrantz was inaugurated in 1739 The many steeples of the church was designed by Carl Hårleman. The exterior was repainted in a grey-white colour in the 1770s. During the 19th century, most of the 17th century interior was hastily replaced, including

Complaints from the parish regarding the now dark church, caused the galleries to be rebuilt again in 1825. The church started using central heating in 1850 and gas lighting in 1862 — the 1.450 flames exceeding any other church in Stockholm. All these modifications were, however, restored by the work of Carl Möller who favoured a Romantic Nationalistic Neo-Renaissance style in Sweden called "Vasa-renässans" and Agi Lindegren who worked in a multitude of styles adopted to various contexts. The galleries were thus reshaped into Neo-Baroque and the church

He was able to surprise the Athenian fleet as it passed close to shore around Cape Zoster. The Spartans captured four triremes and forced the rest of the Athenian ships to retreat to Piraeus. Gorgopas was killed in an ambush later that year. One Athenian unit under Chabrias lay in ambush while another under Demaenetus drew Gorgopas out of Aegina and into the trap by openly marching through the area.

title: "Spectacled caiman" content: Spectacled caiman The spectacled caiman ("Caiman crocodilus"), also known as the white caiman or common caiman, is a crocodilian reptile found in much of Central and South America. It lives in a range of lowland wetland and riverine habitat types, and can tolerate salt water, as well as fresh; due in part to this adaptability, it is the most common of all crocodilian species. The spectacled caiman is a small to medium-sized crocodilian. Males of the species are generally , while females are smaller, usually around . The body mass of most adults is between . The maximum reported size


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: for the species is , with a body mass of but they can grow up to 3 m in length potentially. The largest female was reportedly long and weighed . Caimans from the Venezuelan "llanos" are reportedly larger-bodied than specimens from Mexico. The species' common name comes from a bony ridge between the eyes, which gives the appearance of a pair of spectacles. Overall a typical crocodilian gray-green coloration, this species has been known to change color. During colder weather, the black pigment, found within their skin cells, will expand, making them appear darker. Caimans eat a variety of invertebrates


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: such as insects, crustaceans, and molluscs. Larger caimans eat fish and water snails. Older animals are capable of taking larger, mammalian prey (e.g. wild pigs). As conditions become drier, caimans stop feeding. In areas where this species has become depleted, fish populations have also shown a decline. Until recently, "C. crocodilus" was thought to overeat the fish and snail populations. Some suggest they control piranha populations. However, piranhas have not been found to be a normal diet component. The yacare caiman does demonstrate this particular dietary preference. In reality, "C. crocodilus" is likely very much a generalist and adaptive predator,


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: given its ecological success. The spectacled caiman reaches sexual maturity from four to seven years old. Usually, the more dominant individuals mature more quickly. They gather and mate during the dry season. After mating season ends, the females build nests out of dense vegetation. The size of the nest varies depending on the resources available to the female. Each female can lay up to 40 eggs. The larger females have recently been found to lay larger eggs than smaller females lay. Most caimans nest during the wet season. Seeing a caiman nest during any winter months is very unusual; the


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: temperature is too low for the eggs. Temperature is important to the developing eggs, so females build their nests in a way that insulates them from extreme temperature changes. The nests are made of vegetation; as the vegetation decays, the nests produce heat which can keep the eggs about 5 °C warmer than if they were insulated by mud alone. Heat not only incubates the eggs, but also determines the sex of the developing caimans. When the temperature inside the nest is about 31 °C or lower, the caimans become male. However, when the temperature is about 32 °C or


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: higher, they become female. Young caimans do not hatch with the dark-green colouring of their parents. They are yellow with black spots. This colouration eventually fades away. Spectacled caimans have strongly protective maternal behaviour. They raise their young in crèches, one female taking care of her own, as well as several others' offspring. They take care of their young for the first two to four months after the eggs hatch, the time it takes for the floods of the wet season to subside. This species benefits from overhunting of competitive species which occupy the same home range. This allows them


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: access to resources normally lost to these other species. Their skin is not wanted for leather production because it contains osteoderms. The only skin on their bodies which does not contain osteoderms are their sides. Therefore, hunting of this species is relatively low. In most countries, hunting this species is legal. Venezuela permits hunting every fall, providing the number of kills does not exceed 150,000 for that season. The skin that is salvageable will be harvested. It is commonly found in the American sometimes mislabeled as "Alligator mississippiensis". About four million spectacled caimans are found in Venezuela. Recent surveys show


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: the population is expected to continue to increase. This is an example of how well the species is able to adapt. However, it is difficult to determine how well the species is doing on a global scale, since populations are not doing well in other countries, including Peru and El Salvador. Despite being commonly mistaken as this species, the incredibly large population of caimans living within the Brazilian "pantanal" are a separate species, the yacare caiman. More up-to-date surveys are required for clarification, and to examine the interactions between the different subspecies. Further taxonomic work would make control measures easier


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: to implement, as identification of different subspecies currently can be difficult. The major threat to this species and its subspecies is currently illegal hunting. Smuggling rings operating from Thailand and Singapore are extremely damaging to individual populations, and greater control measures and more effective legislation are needed. According to the Crocodilian Species List: "The subspecies "C. c. apaporiensis" is under severe threat in Colombia. Feral populations of "C. crocodilus" are creating problems for other species of crocodilians and native wildlife, however. These populations have become established in three countries. The introduced population in Cuba is thought to have been primarily


title: "Spectacled caiman" content: responsible for the dramatic decline and probable disappearance of "Crocodylus rhombifer" from the Isla de la Juventud." Conservation programs are used in many countries. The most common form of conservation is the use of cropping, or manually reducing the numbers of several wild, and abundant, species. Long-term effects have yet to be discovered; more surveys have been recommended. Also, farming or ranching programs seem to be more expensive and possibly less effective. Invasive populations have become established in South Florida, with isolated records further north in the state.
