Ecology & Habitat

Habitat

Typically associated with deciduous woodland environments, particularly around cherry tree (Prunus cerasus) ecosystems in temperate European regions.

Ecological Role

Plays a critical role in forest nutrient cycling and decomposition processes, contributing to organic matter breakdown and soil ecosystem health.

Morphology

  • SPORES Basidiospores with probable hyaline or pale coloration, characteristic of its taxonomic classification
  • MYCELIUM Fine, branching underground network facilitating nutrient absorption and inter-organism communication
  • CAP PILEUS Small, potentially white to cream-colored fruiting body with delicate structural characteristics
  • STEM STIPE Likely slender and relatively short, typical of smaller fungal species in the Sebacinales order
