Coprinellus mitrinodulisporus
Coprinellus mitrinodulisporus is a species of mushroom-forming fungus in the family Psathyrellaceae. Described by Italian mycologists Francesco Doveri and Sabrina Sarrocco as new to science in 2011, it was found growing on the dung of chamois ("Rupicapra rupicapra"). The specific epithet "mitrinodulisporus", which combines the Latin words "mitra" ("mitre"), "nodulus" ("small knob"), and "spora" ("spore"), refers to the shape of the spores. The fungus is known only from the type locality in Aosta, Italy.
