Cortinarius magellanicus

Cortinarius magellanicus is a species of agaric fungus in the family Cortinariaceae. It was described as new to science by mycologist Carlos Luigi Spegazzini in 1887.[1] It has been found in South America[2] and New Zealand, although collections made from the latter location appears to be genetically distinct from South American material.[3]
