Collection 14110 is Hebeloma cistophilum.Description
- arrow_drop_downarrow_drop_upCollecting details
Collection 14110 was collected by H.J. Beker on 23rd November 2011 in nr Agios Mamas, CYPRUS (34.8496°N, 33.0021°E, altitude approximately 605 m above sea level - Google maps). The ectomycorrhizal families Cistaceae (genus Cistus) and Pinaceae (genus Pinus) were present.
The surrounding habitat was described as maquis with a substrate of mossy, stony soil, 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. 3.8: Shrubland – Mediterranean-type shrubby vegetation.
According to the GPS data the collection was in the Cyprus Mediterranean 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).
