Taxonomy

The genus was created in 2022 when the family Cortinariaceae, which previously contained only the one genus of Cortinarius was reclassified based on genomic data and split into the genera of Cortinarius, Aureonarius, Austrocortinarius, Calonarius, Cystinarius, Hygronarius, Mystinarius, Phlegmacium, Thaxterogaster and Volvanarius.[2]

The genus is further divided with subgenus classifications:[2]

Volvanarius subgenus Thaumasti.
Volvanarius subgenus Volvanarius.

Etymology

The name Volvanarius derives from the word volva and Cortinarius. This is in reference to the volva which many species in this genus present with.[2]
