Many of its members were formerly classified in the genera Hypholoma, Psilocybe, and Stropharia.
Also some well-known species have been moved to new genera, for instance Psathyrella spadicea is now Homophron spadiceum.
[1] In 2020 many members of the family Psathyrellaceae were reclassified by the German mycologists Dieter Wächter & Andreas Melzer based on phylogenetic analysis.
[2] This study created the new genera Britzelmayria, Candolleomyces and Olotia and placed numerous former Psathyrella species within them.
With classification work ongoing this list is likely to be subject to regular alterations.
