Chlorophyllum Massee Type. Chlorophyllum molybdites (G. Mey.) Massee. Bull. Misc. Inf., Kew: 136. 1898. ≡ Agaricus molybdites G. Mey., Prim. fl. esseq.: 300. 1818. Description. Basidiocarps medium to large sized, stout, agaricoid, with obvious plate-like squamules. Basidiospores olive to greenish-white, thick-walled, ellipsoid to amygdaliform with a truncate apex, except for C. palaeotropicum , which produce subglobose basidiospores without germ pore. Cheilocystidia broadly clavate to sphaeropedunculate. Pileipellis is a palisade of hyphae with terminal elements clavate to subfusiform. Discussion. This section contains the type species of this genus, C. molybdites and also C. globosum , C. pseudoglobosum , as well as the novel taxon C. palaeotropicum .
