Focus is on South-Central Indiana; collecting areas include Brown, Daviess, Greene, Jackson, Morgan, Monroe, and Owen counties. Mainly hardwood forests with some non-native pine. Clay/limestone soils. Rich forest humus. Many of these mushrooms can be found across the Midwest, Northeast North America and beyond.
