Clitocybe acromelalga is a basidiomycete fungus of the large genus Clitocybe found in Japan. It was discovered to be poisonous in 1918, when symptoms of occurred within 3 days of consumption. It had been mistaken for the edible blewit Lepista inversa.[1]
Consumption of a related species, C. amoenolens from France has resulted in the same condition.[2] [3]
