Narcissea

Narcissea is a genus of fungi in the family Psathyrellaceae.

[1] The Narcissea genus was created in 2020 by the German mycologists Dieter Wächter & Andreas Melzer when the Psathyrellaceae family was subdivided based on phylogenetic analysis.

[2] Two members of the Coprinopsis genus were reclassified as Narcissea.

A study in 2021 by mycologist Pietro Voto placed a third species, Coprinopsis cardiaspora in this genus.

This genus is named after the French mycologist Narcisse Théophile Patouillard.
