Lyophyllum buxeum

A Lyophyllum described by Maire and transferred to the genus by Singer in 1943. GBIF has about ten records, all from France and Italy, and the measured site is a mild Mediterranean coast. The epithet points to box (Buxus), but we could not confirm a host or habitat, so the growing notes are inferred.

Where it grows wild

Probably on soil and litter in Mediterranean woodland or scrub. A link with box (Buxus) is suggested by the name only and is not confirmed by the sources.

None of the records carry an elevation; the measured site is near sea level.
