Agrocybe limonia

A small brown-spored lawn and garden mushroom described by Pegler in 1965 from the Adelaide area of South Australia. Nearly all herbarium records are from suburban Adelaide gardens and lawns in the cool wet season, so it is best treated as a grassland soil saprotroph of a Mediterranean climate.

Where it grows wild

Herbarium labels record it in lawns (including buffalo grass) and gardens around Adelaide; one South Georgia collection was on moist peaty ground among tussock grass by a stream.

Lowland: Adelaide plains and foothills around 50–400 m; the South Georgia record is near sea level.
