the waxy cap species, Hygrophorus latitabundus Explanation: I agree you need to use the scientific name because there does not appear to be a common name for this species. That said, the common name for species in this family is often given as 'waxy cap' or 'waxcap' - see explanation in my reference below. So, you could always say... the waxy cap/waxcap species, Hygrophorus latitabundus... depending on the type of text, audience etc. HTH Sheila http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waxcap Traditionally the family Hygrophoraceae, also known as waxy caps or waxcaps, was a taxon of white-spored agarics. Among them are some of the most brightly coloured fungi encountered, often in grasslands, forests and mossy areas across the northern hemisphere. |
