Hygrocybe lepida is an agaric (gilled mushroom) in the family Hygrophoraceae. The species occurs in Europe and was previously referred to the American Hygrocybe cantharellus[1] but is now known to be distinct.[2] Its recommended English name (as H. cantharellus) is goblet waxcap.[3] The species is typically found in nutrient-poor waxcap grassland.[1]
Taxonomy
It was first described in 1986 by the Dutch mycologist Eef Arnolds who classified it as Hygrocybe lepida.[4]
