Assessment Notes
Justification
Since the description of
Cantherellus confertus there do not appear to be any subsequent records of the species. There is limited information available and 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.
Geographic range
The exact range of this species is unknown, having been described from pine woods in 'Bohemia' (Velenovský and Pilát 1925).
Population and Trends
It is only known from the type description.
Population Trend: unknown
Habitat and Ecology
Petrak's list (1937) records the type specimen was described in pine woods, but the extent of habitat is unknown.
Threats
No major threats have been identified due to lack of information about the habitat extent and ecology of this species.
Conservation Actions
Confirmation is required of taxonomic status, population and distribution data and ecology to better assess this species.
