Assessment Notes
Taxonomic notes
Species with a very wide distribution and some morphological variability. Potential species complex?
Why suggested for a Global Red List Assessment?
Abundant species with a wide world distribution. Trend is supposedly stable in a global perspective. LC
Geographic range
Eurasia, N. & S. America, Australia, New Zealand. Cosmoplitan distribution but lacking in the Middle East, Central Asia and in the Arctic.
Population and Trends
Abundant species with a wide world distribution. Trend is supposedly stable in a global perspective.
Population Trend: Stable
Habitat and Ecology
Saprotrophic species in deciduous and coniferous dry woodland, urban parks and gardens. Often adjacent to decaying wood (eg old logs or trunks of Pine trees)
Threats
Currently no threats
Conservation Actions
Research needed
Geastrum rufescens may constitute a complex of closely related species (cryptic speciation) that should be investigated.
