Pholiota cinchonensis
A small scalycap described by Murrill from Cinchona in the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, where the only record was on a dead stick in wet mountain woods at about 1,480 m. It is known from that single collection. The measured climate is cool, frost-free and humid all year, so it is best treated as a tropical-montane wood rotter.
