Pholiota tahquamenonensis

Named for the Tahquamenon Falls area of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where Smith & Hesler described it in 1968. It is a small, reddish-brown scaly Pholiota of hardwood debris in the Great Lakes and eastern North America. GBIF has no usable records under this name, so conditions are built from the Great Lakes climate.
