Agaricus delicatulus

Agaricus delicatulus is an 18th-century name published by William Withering for a British fungus, from the era when Agaricus covered almost every gilled mushroom. GBIF has no usable wild records and the name's modern identity is unclear, so this profile gives only generic conditions for a temperate autumn soil saprotroph.
