Cystoagaricus strobilomyces is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Psathyrellaceae and the type species of the Cystoagaricus genus[1][2]
It was first described in 1945 by the American mycologist William Murrill who discovered the species in Florida and classified it as Nolanea strobilomyces.[3][4]
In 1947 the German mycologist Rolf Singer created the new genus Cystoagaricus and placed this species within it.[5]
The specific epithet strobilomyces derives from this mushroom's resemblance to members of the Strobilomyces genus as a result of the spiky squamules on the cap.[3]
