Assessment Notes

The content on this page is fetched from The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/226993343/227535702

Justification

Since the description of Cantherellus hiemalis there do not appear to be any subsequent records of the species. There is limited information available for the species and with a lack of 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

It is likely that this is a synonym of Craterellus tubaeformis (I. Olariaga Ibarguren in litt. 2022).

Geographic range

The exact range of this species is unknown, having been described from woods in 'Czechoslovakia' (Velenovský 1939).

Population and Trends

It is only known from the type description.

Population Trend: unknown


Habitat and Ecology

Cantharellus hiemalis is found in woods (Petrak 1950).

Threats

There are no documented threats due to lack of information about habitat extent. However, Global Forest Watch outlines a 12% decrease in forest cover from 2001-2019 in Czechia, primarily as a result of deforestation, which might be impacting the species (World Resources Institute 2020).

Conservation Actions

Confirmation is required of taxonomic status, population and distribution data and ecology to better assess the species.
