  • arrow_drop_downarrow_drop_upCollecting details

    Collection 18500 was collected by G.M. Gates, D.A. Ratkowsky on 25th May 2006 in Warra LTER, Bird Track, 1898/1934 plot, subplot A3., Tasmania, AUSTRALIA (approx. 43.0933°S, 146.65°E, altitude approximately 125 m above sea level - Google maps). No ectomycorrhizal plants were recorded.

    The surrounding habitat was described as not recorded with a substrate of boggy soil.

    According to the GPS data the collection was in the Tasmanian temperate rain 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.
