Auricularia tibetica

Auricularia tibetica is a wood ear described by Dai and Wu in 2015; the name marks it as a Tibetan species, so it is presumably a temperate, montane wood ear. The only GBIF records are two from lowland Colombia, which almost certainly belong to something else, so the conditions below are generalised from temperate Auricularia.

Where it grows wild

Presumably dead broadleaf wood in montane forest in south-eastern Tibet; no habitat notes were available.

Not documented; forests of south-eastern Tibet lie mostly at 2000–4000 m.
