Coprinellus disseminatus (formerly Coprinus disseminatus; commonly known as "fairy inkcap"[1] [2]or "trooping crumble cap"[3]) is a species of agaric fungus in the family Psathyrellaceae. Unlike most other coprinoid mushrooms, C. disseminatus does not dissolve into black ink (deliquesce) in maturity. The species was given its current name in 1939 by Jakob Emanuel Lange.[4] The mushroom is edible[5] but of low quality.[6]
Coprinellus disseminatus has about 143 sexes (mating types).[2]
