Chromosera is a genus of fungi in the family Hygrophoraceae. Within the family Hygrophoraceae it is closely related to the genus Gloioxanthomyces . [3] It contains eight species. [2] The generic name honors the mycologist Meinhard Moser, and also alludes ( chromos ) to the distinct coloration of the mushrooms, by overlapping 'chromos' with 'Moser', hence Chromosera. [1]
