Assessment Notes
Justification
There is limited information available for this species, and there do not appear to be any subsequent records of
Cantharellus decipiens since its description. 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 range of this species is unknown, with its listing describing
Cantharellus decipiens from 'Czechoslovakia' from the type description (Commonwealth Mycological Institute 1972).
Population and Trends
This species is only known from type description, and it is not possible to estimate the population size and trend.
Population Trend: Unknown
Habitat and Ecology
No information is available in Commonwealth Mycological Institute (1972) regarding the exact habitat requirements.
Threats
There is no information about any known threats.
Conservation Actions
Confirmation of taxonomic status, population and distribution data and ecology is required to better assess this species.
