Pholiota gregariiformis

Described by Murrill and moved to Pholiota by Smith & Hesler in 1968; the name refers to its gregarious growth. GBIF has only four records, from Alabama and south-east Tennessee. Nothing is published on its ecology beyond the description, so conditions are built from the measured warm-temperate climate.
