Basidiospores globose, yellowish brown, with columnar ornamentation, 4–5 μm diam. Growing on soil

Since the species is reported from several countries worldwide, we suggest this species to be categorized as Least Concern (LC).

The species is known worldwide (10 countries), but probably corresponds to a complex of species.

There are 426 records of this species in GBIF, most of them from Brazil (132) and Costa Rica (109).

Found growing on soil. Common in Brazil, found in Atlantic Forest, Amazon Forest, Caatinga and Pampa.

In Brazil, this species is well distributed. It is found in the Atlantic Forest, a hotspot, in the Amazonia (currently being deforested at the highest rates in the last decades), Caatinga (threatened with desertification) and Pampa (threatened by grazing and farming).

Reports in Brazil are mostly from protected area.

Disjunction distribution of the species might indicate a complex of species.
