Now I am not familiar enough with early taxonomy to figure this one out, but index fungorum has a different authority order, I will keep looking as I am sure there is an explanation on this as there are issues with whose descriptions are considered valid etc. Fascinating.

PS: This is even more fascinating! [1] - so L piperatus is the type and islated from many of the others...and they'll need a new type as much of Lactarius will be fragmented...whoa...Cheers, Casliber ( talk · contribs) 20:49, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
There are also some notes on journals I can't access about this species being eaten by squirrels, which look interesting - just google :) Cheers, Casliber ( talk · contribs) 21:10, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, but can we have a ref on this? Phillips doesn't mention it (which is what it currently looks as if it is attributed to) and I can't find anything on Google Books. J Milburn ( talk) 15:43, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
In my opinion there are far too many refs in this article. Looks ridiculous. However; it is a good article, and i have DYK nominated it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Luridiformis ( talk • contribs) 15:54, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
Up until now i have been reffing from basically 4 or 5 mushroom guidebooks, with occasional forays into 5 or 6 more. They don't vary that much. I can see the point of reffing if you are mixing sources, or if a statement, or fact is likely to be contentious. Ok i concede to your greater experience, and point taken about getting used to it. Ref. it to death chaps. I'm not about to fall out with anybody over such arguments....Cheers Luridiformis ( talk) 09:41, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
This page claims the latex dries olive green. Conflicts with the mushroomexpert.com article https://mushroomexpert.com/lactarius_piperatus.html as well as guidebooks I have referenced. Request double-check.
