Gliophorus reginae is a
IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.[1]
Taxonomy
The species was first
basidiocarps.[4]
Description
Similar species
The Parrot Waxcap Gliophorus psittacinus is similar, but is typically green and, if not, retains this colour at the top of the stipe.[5] The Butterscotch Waxcap Gliophorus europerplexus is also similar, but is orange-brown to pinkish brown.[4]
Distribution and habitat
The Jubilee Waxcap is currently known from England and Wales, Denmark, France, Slovakia, and Spain.[1] Like most other European waxcaps, it occurs in old, agriculturally unimproved, short-sward grassland (pastures and lawns).
Recent research suggests waxcaps are neither
saprotrophic but may be associated with mosses.[6]
Conservation
Gliophorus reginae is typical of
red list of threatened fungi in Denmark.[7]
