Assessment Notes
Justification
There is limited information available from the type description of the species, and no subsequent occurrence records of
Cantharellus mamillatus. With a lack of occurrence data and information on the habitat and ecology of the species, it is not possible to assess the status of its population or distribution. It is therefore assessed as Data Deficient.
Taxonomic notes
Its taxonomy is uncertain, and it may not be cantharelloid (I. Olariaga Ibarguren
in litt. 2022).
Geographic range
The full range of this species is unknown, but it was described from Krokhaug in Norway (Blytt 1905).
Population and Trends
It is only known from the type.
Population Trend: unknown
Habitat and Ecology
The type was described from 'the earth'. The type description does say
Cantharellus mamillatus is similar to an
Omphalia in habitat, but not further information is available (see Blytt 1905).
Threats
Further information is required before an accurate assignment of threats can be made.
Conservation Actions
Confirmation of taxonomic status and an evaluation of its distribution, population, habitat and ecology is required to better assess this species.
