Sui miei Nebrodi, dove è stata istituita la specie, lo troviamo abbastanza spesso (tra poco dovrebbe uscire fuori)
Un'altra curiosità, in aggiunta a quelle che troviamo nell'articolo che ha allegato Massimo: il nome Valdemone non ha alcuna attinenza col demonio, ma deriva presumibilmente da Vallis Nemorum (valle dei boschi), essendovi qui i più estesi boschi della Sicilia. Secondo un'altra teoria, deriverebbe da Demenna, antica città fondata dai Lacedemoni (gli Spartani) su questi monti e di cui si sono perse le tracce.
Vi metto un mio ritrovamento

Etymology: the specific epithet of the name of the taxon
comes from the Latin word "demonensis" and refers to the
ancient name "Valdemone", which was one of the three
valleys ("valli") or real domains ("reali dominii")in which
the region Sicily was subdivided from the Muslim
domination to the Bourbon period; the "Valdemone", with
respect to the "Val di Noto" and the "Val di Mazzara",
constitutes the north-eastern part of the Sicily, an area that
closely corresponds to the actual habitat of R. demonensis.
Furthermore, the epithet "demonensis" well rerninds the
peculiar features of the species, i.e. the flaming red colour of
the cap and the pores, features shared with other close
"devilish" species, belonging to the same genus (R. satanas). Moreover, unforeseeable circumstances would have
wanted that one of the first growth stations of R. demonensis had been the locality "Pizzo Inferno" (i.e.: Hell
Peak) on the Nebrodi chain, in the common of Floresta.
Proprio così, grazie Massimo. Gli autori della specie hanno voluto giocare con queste paroleQueletia mirabilis ha scritto: ↑19 giu 2023, 19:11Dal protologo:
