bitDescription
WEW019 Was collected by Bitty Roy and Keyyana Blount on Feb 3, 2015 at Big Spires Prairie, which is a restored native prairie near Fern Ridge Reservoir, Lane County, Oregon. The fungus is terrestrial and grass associated; the grass present was Festuca roemeri (native). This prairie had been burned a few months earlier, in the fall of 2014. No trees were nearby.
