Taxonomy

It was originally described in 2014 and placed in the large mushroom genus Cortinarius (subgenus Phlegmacium).[1]

In 2022 the species was transferred from Cortinarius and reclassified as Phlegmacium balteaticlavatum based on genomic data.[2]

Habitat and distribution

The species is found in Finland, where it grows in mixed forests with trees such as birch, poplar, willow, spruce, and pine. Fruitbodies occur from mid-August to mid-September.[3]

Etymology

The specific epithet balteaticlavatum refers to both its affinity to C. balteatus and its club-shaped (clavate) stipe.[3]
