Remarks

doi:10.3372/wi.45.45308 the specific epithet is an adjective derived from Marasmiellus Murrill, a genus of basidiomycete fungi in the family Marasmiaceae (from the Greek μαρασμός, marasmos, “decaying”, “withering” or “wasting” plus the diminutive -iellus); the epithet alludes to the striking similarity between the interpistillar staminodes of the new species and the fruiting bodies of the fungus
