Cortinarius flavipallens
Cortinarius flavipallens is a species of agaric fungus in the large mushroom genus Cortinarius (subgenus Phlegmacium). Found in Picea abies-dominated boreal forest in Finland, it was described as new to science in 2014. The specific epithet flavipallens refers to its pale ochre cap colours. Other Cortinarius species with a roughly similar appearance include C. metarius, C. caesiocinctus, and C. piceae.[1]
