Taxonomy
editMacrolepiota was circumscribed by Rolf Singer in 1948, with Macrolepiota procera as the type species.[5]
DNA studies have split this genus into three clades. The macrolepiota clade includes M. procera, M. clelandii, M. dolichaula and closely related species. The macrosporae clade includes species such as M. mastoidea, M. konradii, and M. orientiexcoriata, while the volvatae clade includes M. velosa and M. eucharis.[6][7]
Uses
editMacrolepiota procera, the parasol mushroom, is a well-known and highly esteemed edible species in much of Europe.[8]
