Cyclocybe parasitica, also known as tawaka in Māori language or poplar mushroom,[2][3] is a species of gilled mushroom in the genus Cyclocybe found mostly in New Zealand and Australia. It grows on native and introduced trees where it can cause heart rot, and does not seem to be associated with conifers.[1][4]
