Lyophyllum biconicosporum

A North American Lyophyllum described by Clémençon and A. H. Smith in 1983. It is known only from its type collection, made in July 1949 in hardwoods west of Mackinaw City, Michigan. Nothing is published on how it grows, so these notes are a genus-level guess for northern Michigan hardwood forest.
