The fungi of the ''Dermocybe'' group, commonly known as Skin-heads, form a group within the huge genus ''Cortinarius''. They are generally considered to be a subgenus though some authorities consider them to form a genus in their own right. They can be distinguished from other Cortinarius species by: #their brilliant colours, especially of the gills, #their non-hygrophanous dry cap, and #their dry cylindrical (non-bulbous) stem. An example with a vivid green colour is ''Dermocybe austroveneta''. Another example is ''D. semisanguinea'' (pictured), which from above is an ordinary brown colour, but which shows a striking blood-red sheen when the underside of the cap is viewed. Lethal webcaps one of world's most poisonous mushrooms belongs to the group. The Austrian Professor Dr. Meinhard Moser (1924-2002), whose book is referenced, was one of the authorities who promote ''Dermocybe'' to the status of a genus. ==References== *Meinhard Moser: ''Basidiomycetes II: Röhrlinge und Blätterpilze'', Gustav Fischer Verlag Stuttgart (1978).
