Assessment Notes
Justification
This is a very widespread species, that is not thought to be under significant threat. It is, therefore, assessed as Least Concern.
Geographic range
This species is widespread in the northern hemisphere. More southern records could refer to introductions, misidentifications, or potential new species.
Population and Trends
With such a wide distribution the population size of this species is suspected to be very large.
Population Trend: Unknown
Habitat and Ecology
Across its range this mycorrhizal species occurs in both coniferous and broadleaved forest.
Threats
While it may face some localised threats, it is not thought to face any significant threats that would impact its global status.
Conservation Actions
A full taxonomic review of this genus is required, and this could lead to this species being split in the future.
Use and Trade
This is an edible species, and may have some medicinal value (e.g. O’Callaghan
et al. 2015).
