Lepista
''Lepista'' is a genus of mushroom-forming fungi. According to the ''Dictionary of the Fungi'' (10th edition, 2008), the widespread genus contains about 50 species. In 1969, Howard Bigelow and Alex H. Smith made the group a subgenus of ''Clitocybe''. A 2015 genetic study found that the genera ''Collybia'' and ''Lepista'' were closely related to the core clade of ''Clitocybe'', but that all three were polyphyletic, with many members in lineages removed from other members of the same genus and instead more closely related to the other two. Alvarado and colleagues declined to define the genera but proposed several options and highlighted the need for a wider analysis. Selected species * ''Lepista caespitosa'' * ''Lepista flaccida'' (previously ''Clitocybe flaccida'') * ''Lepista gilva'' * ''Lepista glaucocana'' * ''Lepista inversa'' * ''Lepista personata'' * ''Lepista saeva'' (field blewit) * ''Lepista sordida'' See also *List of Tricholomataceae genera The Tricholomataceae are ...

Lepista Flaccida
''Paralepista flaccida'' (also called ''Clitocybe flaccida'', ''Clitocybe inversa'', ''Lepista flaccida'' and ''Lepista inversa'', or in English tawny funnel cap) is a species of mushroom found across the Northern Hemisphere. It is known to form fairy rings. Naming The naming history of this mushroom is complicated by the fact that for a long time it was regarded as two different species, "''flaccida''" (associated with broad-leaved trees) and "''inversa''" (associated with conifers and with a smoother shinier cap). These forms can still be differentiated as varieties within ''P. flaccida'' if desired. The earliest description was by Giovanni Antonio Scopoli in 1772 as ''Agaricus inversus'' in his booFlora Carniolica then in 1799 James Sowerby created a description under the name ''Agaricus flaccidus'' in his major work " Coloured Figures of English Fungi or Mushrooms". In later years there were defined the combinations ''Clitocybe flaccida'' (by Paul Kummer, 1871), ''Clitocybe in ...

Lepista Personata
''Lepista personata'' (also recognised as ''Lepista saeva'', ''Clitocybe saeva'' and ''Tricholoma personatum'', and commonly known as the field blewit and blue-leg) is a species of edible fungus commonly found growing in grassy areas across Europe and is morphologically related to the wood blewit ('' Lepista nuda''). Taxonomy This species was originally proclaimed by Elias Fries in 1818, as ''Agaricus personatus''. Cooke proposed in 1871 another name still in use today — ''Lepista personata''. Other names were to follow, namely ''Lepista saeva'' by P.D. Orton in 1960 and ''Clitocybe saeva'' by H.E. Bigelow & A.H. Smith in 1969, the latter placing the fungus in the larger genus ''Clitocybe''. In Latin, the specific epithet ''sævus'' is an adjective meaning either fierce, outrageous, angry or strong. Likewise, ''personatus'' is a participle meaning disguised, pretended or false. Description The fruiting body of the mushroom resembles an agaric. The cap is at first hemispher ...

List Of Tricholomataceae Genera
The Tricholomataceae are a family of fungi in the order Agaricales. A 2008 estimate placed 78 genera and 1020 species in the family. In 2014, Sánchez-García and colleagues proposed a revised classification of the Tricholomataceae with seven genera: '' Leucopaxillus'', ''Tricholoma'', ''Dennisiomyces'', '' Porpoloma'', and the newly circumscribed genera '' Corneriella'', '' Pogonoloma'' and '' Pseudotricholoma''.

Clitocybe
''Clitocybe'' is a genus of mushrooms characterized by white, off-white, buff, cream, pink, or light-yellow spores, gills running down the stem, and pale white to brown or lilac coloration. They are primarily saprotrophic, decomposing forest ground litter. There are estimated to be around 300 species in the widespread genus. ''Clitocybe'' means ''sloping head''. A few members of the genus are considered edible; many others are poisonous, containing the toxin muscarine among others. Distinguishing individual species of ''Clitocybe'' is generally prohibitively difficult to non-experts, requiring the analysis of microscopic characters. Therefore, with the exception of a few charismatic and readily identified members, ''Clitocybe'' mushrooms are rarely collected for consumption. Taxonomy ''Clitocybe'' was originally proposed by Elias Fries in 1821 as a tribe in the genus ''Agaricus''. Friedrich Staude elevated it to generic status in 1857. Recent molecular work has shown the genus ...

Elias Magnus Fries
Elias Magnus Fries (15 August 1794 – 8 February 1878) was a Swedish mycologist and botanist. Career Fries was born at Femsjö (Hylte Municipality), Småland, the son of the pastor there. He attended school in Växjö. He acquired an extensive knowledge of flowering plants from his father. In 1811 Fries entered Lund University where he obtained a doctorate in 1814. In the same year he was appointed an associate professorship in botany. He was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, and in 1824, became a full professor. In 1834 he became Borgström professor (Swed. ''Borgströmianska professuren'', a chair endowed by Erik Eriksson Borgström, 1708–1770) in applied economics at Uppsala University. The position was changed to "professor of botany and applied economics" in 1851. He was elected a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1849. That year he was also appointed director of the Uppsala University Botanica ...
