Habitat and ecology. Pine and birch forests. Phenology. Flowering in Jul-Aug; fruiting in Sep-Oct. Conservation status. Not protected, but protection is needed since in the studied region the majority of localities fall into the resort area of the Kokchetav Upland. Taking into account that habitats of H. cucullata (Figs 3I , 6C ) are exposed to serious recreational loads, we consider it necessary to include the species in the next edition of the Red Book of Kazakhstan.
