Arrhenia auriscalpium in arctic-alpine habitats: world distribution, ecology, new reports from the southern Rocky Mountains, USA
During our investigations of alpine agarics in the central and southern Rocky Mountains, Arrhenia auriscalpium (Fr.) Fr. was collected several times on high mountain localities in Colorado at elevations of 3,350-3,670 m. Arrhenia auriscalpium is a well-known arcticalpine basidiomycete (Agaricales) w...
