Pholiota henningsii

A small, rarely recorded European Pholiota, originally described by Bresadola and combined by Orton in 1960. Records come from the Netherlands, Denmark, France, Germany and the Alps, mostly in autumn. It is generally reported from wet places such as bogs and alder carr among mosses, though we could not confirm this from a reachable source.
