Pholiota eucalyptorum

A scalycap named for eucalypts, originally described by Cleland and moved to Pholiota by Singer. It is well recorded in south-eastern Australia, especially the Victorian ranges east of Melbourne, and in Tasmania and south-west Western Australia. Conditions here come from the measured climate and general Pholiota practice; no cultivation reports exist.
