Assessment Notes

The content on this page is fetched from The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/226993309/227535766

Justification

Outside of a recording made in Tiruchirappalli, India, there don't appear to be any records of this species. Information regarding the habitat preferences of this species and its potential threats appears to be similarly lacking. Further research is needed to confirm this species' existence in the wild, and the extent to which it may be threatened, and so this species is listed as Data Deficient until such research is carried out.

Taxonomic notes

It is uncertain if it is a Cantharellus or not. The description could fit Cantharellus, but the ecology would be very unusual (branches lying on the ground; Montagne 1834) (I. Olariaga Ibarguren in litt. 2022).

Geographic range

The type specimen of this species was recorded in the mountainous regions of Tamil Nadu at Tiruchirappalli, formerly known as Trichinopoly, India (Montagne 1834, Manjula 1983).

Population and Trends

The current population trends of this species cannot be confirmed without further research, as no geographic records exists for this species, outside of a recording made in the 19th century from Tiruchirappalli, India.

Population Trend: Unknown

Habitat and Ecology

This species was located in the mountainous regions of Tiruchirappalli, however the extent to which information on this species' habitat or ecology is known is very limited.

Threats

Further information regarding the exact distribution of the species is required before an accurate assessment of the threats it faces can be made.

Conservation Actions

No information is known about the current population trends of this species, and so no conservation action can be recommended at this time. Research is required in order to confirm this species’ presence in the wild, its possible population trends, habitat requirement and the threats which may be affecting it.
