Trametes amygdalea

Trametes amygdalea was described by René Maire in 1922 (Bull. Soc. Mycol. Fr. 38). Maire worked mainly on the fungi of North Africa, and the epithet suggests almond (Amygdalus), but neither host nor locality was confirmed in the sources reached. It is not known in cultivation; the conditions below are generalised from better-known Trametes.
