Genus of fungi
Descolea is a genus of fungi in the family Bolbitiaceae . Described by mycologist Rolf Singer in 1952,[ 3] the widespread genus contains about 15 species.[ 4] It was formerly placed in the family Cortinariaceae because of its limoniform basidiospores and its ectomycorrhizal lifestyle.[ 5] A 2013 molecular phylogenetics study by Tóth et al. found it to be closely related to the genus Pholiotina [ 5] The genus Pseudodescolea , erected for the single Descolea -like species Pseudodescolea lepiotiformis , was formerly considered distinct until a 1990 study found it to be a synonym of Descolea antarctica .[ 6]
The genus name of Descolea is in honour of Horacio Raúl Descole (1910-1984), who was an Argentine apothecary , biochemist and botanist.[ 7]
