List of Leucocoprinus species

This is a list of species in the agaric genus Leucocoprinus.

Some may be described based on a single recorded observation and a decades' old deposited specimen and may be subject to future reclassification.

New species are regularly being described from remote tropical locations with only a small number of the species here being commonly observed in temperate regions.

[4] Additionally some of these species may be synonyms that haven't been reclassified yet or remain as currently recognised species in error.

For instance Leucocoprinus flos-sulphuris is a synonym for L. birnbaumii and Leucocoprinus zeyheri was reclassified as Macrolepiota zeyheri whilst newly described species such as L. fluminensis and L. rhodolepis have yet to be added to the list of accepted species.
