Assessment Notes
Justification
Since the description of
Cantherellus corconticus there do not appear to be any subsequent records of the species. There is a lack of occurrence data and information on the habitat and ecology of the species, and it is not possible to assess the status of its population or distribution. It is therefore assessed as Data Deficient.
Geographic range
This species was described on ridges of the Giant Mountains in 'Bohemia' in present-day Czechia (Velenovský 1920).
Population and Trends
It is only known from the type description.
Population Trend: unknown
Habitat and Ecology
The type specimen was described as on a layer of withered/decaying
Polytrichum on mountain ridges (see Velenovský 1920).
Threats
No threats can be identified due to limited information about its habitat and ecology.
Conservation Actions
Confirmation is required of taxonomic status, population and distribution data and ecology to better assess the species.
