spread these species. Other Leucocoprinus species such as L. fragilissimus, L. brebissonii, L. flavescens and L. ianthinus are also observed growing in plant pots but they aren't as common or as well known and can be conflated with other species. In some regions it may be warm enough for introduced Leucocoprinus species to survive in the wild or grow outside but in regions with cold winter temperatures their distribution is generally limited to plant pots and greenhouses. , iNaturalist has over 8,000 observations for L. birnbaumii from all over the world, almost 4,000 for L. cepistipes and fewer than 500 for L. cretaceus. L. fragilissimus has over 2,000, L. brebissonii has under 400, L. flavescens has just 20 and L. ianthinus has fewer than 100. Whilst this can provide some indication of which species are the most common, these observations are heavily biased by which species are most commonly known by human observers and the ID suggestion algorithm. Many photos for L. birnbaumii for instance are misidentified and clearly represent other Leucocoprinus species.
