Kuehneromyces papuensis

Kuehneromyces papuensis (Cooke & Massee) Pegler is a small brown-spored agaric moved into Kuehneromyces by Pegler in 1965 in the Australian Journal of Botany. The epithet points to New Guinea; GBIF holds no usable wild records, so almost nothing is known of its ecology beyond the genus pattern of clustered caps on dead wood.
