Assessment Notes

Taxonomic notes

Why suggested for a Global Red List Assessment?

This species occur commonly on dead wood in various countries. However, woody material are consistently removed from environments for firewood or cleaning.  Although it is considered common, its phylogeography and species status from various parts of the world must still be verified, and inconsiderate and continued removal of substrate from the environment may lead to its eventual decline.
