Phaeocollybia herrerae
Phaeocollybia herrerae is a species of fungus in the family Cortinariaceae. Found in Morelos, Mexico, where it grows in subtropical (mesophytic) forest with oak and in pine-oak forest, it was described as new to science in 1996 by mycologists Victor Bandala and Leticia Montoya. It is in the section "Microsporae" of genus "Phaeocollybia". Its roughly ellipsoid to somewhat egg-shaped spores measure 5–5.5 by 2.5–3 µm. The specific epithet "herrerae" honors Teófilo Herrera Suárez, "because of his prominent contribution to Mexican mycology 50 year ago".
