The biology and ecology of many Entoloma species is still poorly known as well as their geographical distribution. In Italy, there are no studies on the influence of weather on fungal abundance and richness and our knowledge on the ecology and distribution of Entoloma species needs to be improved. The discovery of two Entoloma species in Sicily (southern Italy), reported in the literature as belonging to the habitat of north European countries, was the basis leading to the assumption that anomalous climatic conditions could stimulate the growth of northern entolomas in the southernmost Mediterranean regions. The results of this study show that the presence of northern Entoloma species in Sicily is not influenced by the Mediterranean type of vegetation, by edaphic or altitudinal factors but by anomalous climatic trends of precipitations and temperatures which stimulate the fructification of basidiomata in correspondence with a thermal shock during autumn.
许多粉褶菌物种的生物学和生态学以及它们的地理分布仍然鲜为人知。在意大利，尚未有关于天气对真菌丰度和丰富度影响的研究，我们对粉褶菌物种的生态学和分布的了解有待完善。文献报道在西西里岛（意大利南部）发现了两种粉褶菌物种，它们原本属于北欧国家的栖息地，基于此推测异常的气候条件可能会刺激最南端地中海地区的北方粉褶菌生长。这项研究的结果表明，西西里岛北方粉褶菌物种的存在不受地中海植被类型、土壤或海拔因素的影响，而是受降水和温度的异常气候趋势影响，这些趋势会在秋季与热冲击相对应时刺激担子果结实。
