Cryptomarasmius is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae.

Taxonomy

This name is not yet valid or effectively published. The genus was circumscribed in 2013 to contain species formerly placed in Marasmius, section Hygrometrici.[1] The section Hygrometrici was described in 1933 by French mycologist Robert Kühner (as "Hygrometriceae") to contain Marasmius species that were small with a dark, wiry stipe, gills not arranged in a collar around the stipe, and a dark cap with a layer of broom cells.[2] The type species is Cryptomarasmius corbariensis (formerly Marasmius corbariensis and originally Agaricus androsaceus var. hygrometricus, first described in 1852 by Vincenzo Briganti). Cryptomarasmius combines the words crypto meaning "hidden" and Marasmius, alluding to the historical placement of the species within Marasmius as well as the often hidden, minute fruit bodies they produce.[1]

Species

Fourteen species have been transferred to Cryptomarasmius from Marasmius. The authors suggest that there are several more that should probably be moved from sect. Hygrometrici, but they only made new combinations for those species with type specimens that were available for sequencing or study.[1]
