A species described from the Crimean Peninsula, where it occurs in deciduous and mixed forests growing up to 1000 m amsl. It develops in the sporocarps of the fungi, mainly from the genus Trametes : T. suaveolens , T. versicolor (L.) Lloyd, T. pubescens (Schumach.) Pilát and Cerrena unicolor (Bull.)
