Agaricus hypophaeus

Agaricus hypophaeus was described by Heinemann in 1980 from tropical Asian material; its only GBIF record is a 1940 collection from Cluny Road, Singapore, near the Botanic Gardens. Nothing is published on its ecology or cultivation, so the profile gives generic equatorial Agaricus conditions.
