Pleurotus subbarbatulus

Described by Murrill from Mexico and transferred to Pleurotus by Saccardo and Trotter in 1925. The only GBIF record is from about 500 m in central Veracruz, a warm, summer-wet region, which matches Murrill's Mexican collecting. Nothing is known of it beyond the original description, and it has not been checked with modern methods.
