- arrow_drop_downarrow_drop_upCollecting details
Collection 9382 was collected by C.E. Aaron, det: H.J. Beker on 22nd October 2002 in Cors Erd, Anglesey, WALES (53.3056°N, 4.2962°W, altitude approximately 0 m above sea level - Google maps). The ectomycorrhizal family Betulaceae (genus Betula) was present.
The surrounding habitat was described as mixed dune woodland, 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. 13.3: Coastal Sand Dunes.
According to the GPS data the collection was in the Celtic broadleaf 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).
