Collection 1000148 was collected by F. Gröger on 28th September 1978 in Siebleber Teich, Gotha, Thuringia, GERMANY (approx. 50.937°N, 10.7632°E, altitude approximately 280 m above sea level - Google maps). The ectomycorrhizal family Salicaceae (genus Salix) was present.

The surrounding habitat was described as not recorded.

According to the GPS data the collection was in the Central European mixed 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). Use this webtool to explore the ecoregions visually or see a full list of current ecoregions on Wikipedia. (biome: Temperate Broadleaf & Mixed Forests) and Koppen climate code Dfb (Cold, no dry season, warm summer).
