Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

Hygrocybe Calciphila
''Hygrocybe'' is a genus of agarics (gilled fungi) in the family Hygrophoraceae. Called waxcaps in English (sometimes waxy caps in North America), basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are often brightly coloured and have dry to waxy caps, white spores, and smooth, ringless stems. In Europe they are characteristic of old, unimproved grasslands (termed waxcap grasslands) which are a declining habitat, making many ''Hygrocybe'' species of conservation concern. Four of these waxcap-grassland species, ''Hygrocybe citrinovirens'', '' H. punicea'', '' H. spadicea'', and '' H. splendidissima'', are assessed as globally "vulnerable" on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Elsewhere waxcaps are more typically found in woodlands. Most are ground-dwelling and all are believed to be biotrophs. Around 150 species are recognized worldwide. Fruit bodies of several ''Hygrocybe'' species are considered edible and are sometimes offered for sale in local markets. Taxonomy History ''Hygrocybe'' w ...

Hygrocybe Conica
''Hygrocybe conica'' is a species of agaric (gilled mushroom) in the family Hygrophoraceae. In the UK it has been given the recommended English name of blackening waxcap, since all parts of the basidiocarp (fruit body) blacken with age. In North America it is commonly known as the witch's hat, conical wax cap or conical slimy cap. ''Hygrocybe conica'' is known to be a complex of at least eleven closely related species and as such is widespread in Europe, North America, Asia, and elsewhere. Taxonomy The species was first described from Bavaria in 1774 by German polymath Jacob Christian Schäffer, who named it ''Agaricus conicus''. Paul Kummer transferred it to the genus ''Hygrocybe'' in 1871. Recent molecular research, based on cladistic analysis of DNA sequences, has confirmed that ''Hygrocybe conica'' belongs in ''Hygrocybe'' sensu stricto. However, it has also indicated that the name is currently applied to at least eleven closely related but genetically distinct taxa worldwid ...

Hygrocybe Coccinea
''Hygrocybe coccinea'', sometimes called the scarlet hood, scarlet waxcap or righteous red waxy cap, is a colourful member of the mushroom ''genus'' ''Hygrocybe''. These waxcaps are found across the Northern Hemisphere from China and Japan to Europe and North America. The small bright red mushroom is a familiar sight in unimproved grasslands in Europe in late summer and autumn, and woodlands in North America in winter. Taxonomy The scarlet hood was first described as ''Agaricus coccineus'' by German mycologist Jacob Christian Schäffer in 1774, before being transferred to the genus ''Hygrophorus'' by Elias Magnus Fries in 1838, and finally ''Hygrocybe'' by Paul Kummer in 1871. The specific epithet ''coccinea'' is Latin for "scarlet". Description A small waxcap with an initially bell-shaped, and later flattening, cap 2–5 cm (¾–2 in) across, scarlet in colour and slimy in texture. The adnate gills are thick and widely spaced, yellow red in colour. The spore print is white ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hygrocybe Citrinovirens
''Hygrocybe citrinovirens'' is a species of agaric (gilled mushroom) in the family Hygrophoraceae. It has been given the recommended English name of Citrine Waxcap. The species has a European distribution, occurring mainly in agriculturally unimproved grassland. Threats to its habitat have resulted in the species being assessed as globally "vulnerable" on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Taxonomy The species was first described from Denmark in 1923 by mycologist Jakob Emanuel Lange as ''Camarophyllus citrinovirens''. Julius Schäffer transferred it to the genus ''Hygrocybe'' in 1947. Recent molecular research, based on cladistic analysis of DNA sequences, has shown that ''Hygrocybe citrinovirens'' is distinct and belongs in ''Hygrocybe'' sensu stricto. Description Basidiocarps are agaricoid, up to 130mm (5 in) tall, the cap conical at first, retaining an acute or distinct umbo when expanded, up to 90mm (3 in) across, often splitting at the margins.

Hygrocybe Chlorophana
''Hygrocybe chlorophana'' is a species of agaric (gilled mushroom) in the family Hygrophoraceae. It has been given the recommended English name of golden waxcap in the UK. The species has a largely north temperate distribution, occurring in grassland in Europe and in woodland in North America and northern Asia; it has also been reported from mountainous areas of southern Australia. It typically produces basidiocarps (fruit bodies) in the autumn. In a few European countries, ''H. chlorophana'' is of conservation concern, appearing on national red lists of threatened fungi. Taxonomy The species was first described in 1821 by noted Scandinavian mycologist Elias Magnus Fries as ''Agaricus chlorophanus'', based on specimens collected locally in Sweden. In 1877, German mycologist Friedrich Otto Wünsche moved it to the genus '' Hygrocybe''. The specific epithet comes from Greek χλωρός (= pale green) + φαίνω (= I appear), though it is not clear why Fries chose t ...
