Auricularia wrightii

Auricularia wrightii is a small wood ear described by Berkeley and Curtis as Hirneola wrightii, after the collector Charles Wright, and moved to Auricularia by Farlow in 1905. The four usable GBIF records are from the United States, and the measured site is a hot, humid lowland with wet summers. Little else is published about it.
