Dear taxacomers,

I got a lot of responses to my question regarding the distribution and
rarity of Myriostoma coliforme and I would like to thank all those who
gave me information: Philippe Clerck, Sigvard Svensson, Roy Halling, Rod
Tulloss, Vera Evenson, Andr? De Kesel, Florence Nishida and Vladimir
Antonin.
Together with some information I could gather on the web, I obtained the
following picture:

probably Colorado and Dakota

Vorpommern
Netherlands: North Sea dunes
Great Britain: Jersey (rediscovered February 1996 by Nick Armstrong)
