[edit]It was described as new to science in 2014 and classified as Cortinarius melleicarneus. It was placed in the subgenus Phlegmacium of the large mushroom genus Cortinarius.[2]
In 2022 the species was transferred from Cortinarius and reclassified as Thaxterogaster melleicarneus based on genomic data.[3]
Etymology
