A Synopsis of Marasmius Section Globulares (Tricholomataceae) in the United States
Halling RE. 1983. A Synopsis of Marasmius Section Globulares (Tricholomataceae) in the United States. Brittonia. 35(4):317-326
ABSTRACT: Nine species are admitted in Marasmius section Globulares for the United States. The presence or absence of cystidia, as well as their morphology and distribution, provides a convenient means for distinguishing species. Taxa possessing setae or broom cells are excluded from section Globulares and are considered best accommodated in Marasmius section Sicci. Descriptions and illustrations of poorly known species are given; references to complete treatments of well-known species are cited. A key to species is provided. Marasmius nigrodiscus is proposed as a new combination, and Marasmius lilacinus is lectotypified.
