Entoloma undulatosporum

Unknown

Overview

A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.

Welligsporiger Rötling faces severe habitat degradation due to intensive agricultural practices and urban development fragmenting its specialized woodland ecosystems. The species' dependence on specific soil chemistry and mycorrhizal relationships makes it particularly vulnerable to pollution and changes in forest management practices. Climate change is altering precipitation patterns and temperature regimes in its native range, disrupting the delicate ecological conditions required for fruiting body formation.

Threat summary

Habitat

This rare fungus inhabits deciduous and mixed woodlands, particularly favoring nutrient-rich soils with specific pH conditions and established mycorrhizal networks. It typically occurs in mature forest ecosystems with stable canopy cover and minimal human disturbance.
