MycoKey : the genus Conocybe

Generic short diagnoses: Mostly elegant, mycenoid, saprobic, vivid brown-spored agarics with adnate to free lamellae, these more crowded than in similar Galerina species. Pileipellis hymeniform, lecythiform cells often present on lamella edges and also on pileus and stipe; pleurocystidia absent.
