Stropharia apiahyna

Stropharia apiahyna was described by Spegazzini as Pholiota apiahyna from Apiaí in São Paulo state and moved to Stropharia by Cortez and Silveira in 2008. Its few records come from the Atlantic Forest region of southern Brazil and from Uruguay. Nothing is known in cultivation; the notes combine the measured subtropical climate with genus-level Stropharia practice.
