Assessment Notes

Taxonomic notes

A species belonging to the B. aestivalis complex. Species boundaries are currently not resolved. No sequence data available.
For taxonomy see Demoulin 1979. Misapplication of name by Ulvinen (1997) = B. aestivalis (Jeppson 2001).


Why suggested for a Global Red List Assessment?

The definition of Bovista dryina is currently ambiguous due to very few records and lack of sequence data; a taxonomic revision of the Bovista aestivalis compl. with a global scope is needed. Redlist evaluation is not possible based on current knowledge, thus: NE


Geographic range

Holotype from Ohio, USA.
