Review (by Malcolm Storey) | Reviews this subgenus of Cortinarius nominally distinguished by both cap and stem having slimy coating. In practice this is a theoretical distinction and a number of species break the rules. The paper presents a key to species followed by species accounts. There are good photographs of most of the species. |
Examine | Compound Microscope |
Specimen Preparation | Spore micro-characters are fundamental in this group. |
