Trametes theae

A Trametes named by A. Zimmermann in 1901 in a plant-pathology journal; the epithet refers to tea (Thea), and Zimmermann was then working on crop diseases in Java, so it was presumably described from tea plants there. GBIF holds no specimens or observations.

Unknown; Javanese tea estates lie mostly at about 800–1800 m.
