Observation: Hygrocybe pratensis (Pers.) Bon (2062)

Preferred Name: Camarophyllus pratensis (Pers.) P. Kumm.
When: 2007-01-20
Collection location: Howarth Park, Santa Rosa, Sonoma Co., California, USA [Click for map]
Who: Debbie Drechsler (debdrex)
No herbarium specimen

Notes: The gills on this were slightly decurrent, kind of thick, widely spaced and alternating lengths and the same color as the pileus and stipe. Found in mixed wood. I wasn’t entirely sure about this ID and being asked to add a new name has made me less sure!

Summary: According to Index fungorum…

…hygrocybe pratensis is the current name. Is there another source I should use to find current names? See http://www.indexfungorum.org/...

Summary: Looks correct to me, but perhaps it should be Hygrophorus pratensis…

I had noticed before that we didn’t have any shots of C. pratensis. Interestingly the Index Fungorum says that Hygrophorus pratensis is currently the correct name. I had heard before from Dennis Desjardin that Camarophyllus was now considered a synonym for Hygrophorus. I’d be interested to hear other people’s opinions.
