- arrow_drop_downarrow_drop_upCollecting details
Collection 1000258 was collected by C.H. Peck in October 1885 in Albany, Karner, New York, UNITED STATES (approx. 42.7234°N, 73.8573°W, altitude approximately 100 m above sea level - Google maps). No ectomycorrhizal plants were recorded.
The surrounding habitat was described as not recorded with a substrate of sandy soil.
According to the GPS data the collection was in the Northeast US Coastal 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).

Compare this collection to its species
This section compares data for this collection against its true species and also against the most likely species as determined by our identifier. More often than not these will be the same species, but where this is not the case, the data may be used to help explain why the identifier got it wrong.Image gallery
