To support my talks to introduce the new Cortinariaceae to mushroom clubs I created a Mind Map of the new genera proposed by Liimatainen and others in their 2022 paper ((Liimatainen et al. 2022) . I am sharing it here to help you understand the proposed placement of sections and species across genera, and recognize them more easily.
Due to all the images representing genera and sections this is a large PDF, so sharing a summary. I am updating it regularly and will share an online version in coming days.
