- arrow_drop_downarrow_drop_upCollecting details
Collection 1000028 was collected by H. Romagnesi (R60-221) on 9th September 1960 in Vallee de la Bystra,nr Htl Srdiecko, Basses Tatras, SLOVAKIA (approx. 48.84°N, 19.59°E, altitude approximately 1400 m above sea level - Google maps). The ectomycorrhizal family Fagaceae (genus Fagus) was present.
The surrounding habitat was described as deciduous, granitic woodland with a substrate of acidic soil and litter, corresponding to the IUCN habitat We map from the collector's description of the habitat to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN)'s definition using a standardised set of rules. Please see this page for a full list of IUCN habitats. 1.4: Forest – Temperate.
According to the GPS data the collection was in the Carpathian montane forests WWF ecoregion The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) have divided the world into 867 terrestrial ecoregions. The ecoregion here is estimated by mapping from the GPS coordinates of the collection using data made available by Dinerstein et al (2017).
