Phlegmacium is a genus of fungi in the family Cortinariaceae. [1]
The genus was created in 1877 by the German mycologist Friedrich Otto Wünsche [2] based on the earlier 1821 classification of the Agaricus tribe Phlegmacium by the Swedish mycologist Elias Magnus Fries. [3]
In 2022 the family Cortinariaceae, which previously contained only the one genus of Cortinarius was reclassified based on genomic data and split into the genera of Cortinarius, Aureonarius , Austrocortinarius , Calonarius , Cystinarius , Hygronarius , Mystinarius , Phlegmacium, Thaxterogaster and Volvanarius . Numerous Cortinarius species were transferred into the genus of Phlegmacium as a result of this work. [4]
The genus is further divided with subgenus and section classifications: [4]
As of January 2023, Species Fungorum accepted 252 species of Phlegmacium. [5]

Phlegmacium cremeiamarescens is a species of fungus in the family Cortinariaceae. It was originally described in 2014 by the mycologists Ilkka Kytövuori, Kare Liimatainen and Tuula Niskanen who classified it as Cortinarius cremeiamarescens. It was placed in the of the large mushroom genus Cortinarius. The specific epithet cremeiamarescens refers to the fruitbody colour and the bitter-tasting cap cuticle. Phlegmacium gentianeus is a sister species with which it has been previously confused. It's found in southern Europe and western North America, where it grows in coniferous forests.
