Agaricus devoniensis

Agaricus devoniensis is a small whitish sand-dune Agaricus described by P. D. Orton in 1960 from Devon, England. It grows on coastal dunes in Europe, often with marram grass, with its cap partly buried in sand. GBIF records match this closely: most sites are within a few metres of sea level on North Sea and Atlantic coasts.
