Collection 11904 was collected by P.D. Orton on 9th October 1954 in Elstead 2, Surrey, ENGLAND (approx. 51.32°N, 0.7°W, altitude approximately 55 m above sea level - Google maps). No ectomycorrhizal plants were recorded.
The surrounding habitat was described as not recorded.
According to the GPS data the collection was in the English Lowlands beech 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).
