A specimen of Marasmius capillipes Sacc. was collected and cultivated in a moist chamber from a leaf of Populus alba in the Cahnov forest near Lanžhot (southern Moravia). The fungus formed four fruit bodies, which displayed hygroscopic behavior. The species is rare and only known from northern Italy and France. This is its first record in Czechoslovakia.
