Britzelmayria is a genus of fungi in the family Psathyrellaceae.[1]
Taxonomy
[edit]The Britzelmayria genus was created in 2020 by the German mycologists Dieter Wächter & Andreas Melzer when the Psathyrellaceae family was subdivided based on phylogenetic analysis.[2] Two members of the Psathyrella genus were reclassified as Britzelmayria.
The type species, Britzelmayria supernula was previously classified as Psathyrella supernula.
Etymology
[edit]The genus is named after the German mycologist Max Britzelmayr,[2] who originally classified the type species as Agaricus supernulus in 1883.[3]
