Paxillus filamentosus, commonly known as the alder roll-rim, is a basidiomycete fungus which is associated with alder ( Alnus ) in northern Europe and southwestern Greenland, ^[1] and North America. ^[2] It closely resembles Paxillus involutus , but its fruit bodies are generally smaller. ^[3]

Some sources regard Paxillus rubicundulus as a synonym, ^[4] but MycoBank and Index Fungorum treat it as different species. ^{[5] [6]}
