Pholiota multicingulata

A saprotrophic Pholiota described by Egon Horak in 1983 from Australia and New Zealand, growing mainly on decaying wood and sometimes on soil. It has been implicated in two non-fatal poisonings in China. It is not cultivated, and conditions here are built from its wild climate.
