Taxonomy

The genus was created in 2022 when 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. [2]

The genus is further divided with subgenus classifications: [2]

Etymology

The name Volvanarius derives from the word volva and Cortinarius. This is in reference to the volva which many species in this genus present with. [2]

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 is found in southern Europe and western North America, where it grows in coniferous forests.
