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 Britzelmayria,[2] who originally classified the type species as Agaricus supernulus in 1883.[3]
