Coprinopsis martinii is a species of mushroom producing fungus in the family Psathyrellaceae.[1][2]
Taxonomy
It was first described in 1960 by the English mycologist Peter Darbishire Orton and classified as Coprinus martinii.[3]
In 2001 phylogentic analysis restructured the Coprinus genus and it was reclassified as Coprinopsis martinii by the mycologists Scott Alan Redhead, Rytas J. Vilgalys & Jean-Marc Moncalvo.[4]

Cap: 0.5-2.2cm. Starts ovoid and expands to convex and then campanulate (bell shaped). Sometimes presenting as umbonate. Grey and covered in powdery fragments of the veil. Gills: Start white before turning black and deliquescing (dissolving into an ink-like black substance). Crowded. Stem: 3.2-6cm long and 1.5-2mm in diameter. Pale grey and tapering towards a slightly swollen base. Spore print: Black. Spores: Ellipsoid and smooth with a germ pore. 12.-16 x 6.5-8.5 μm. Taste: Indistinct. Smell: Indistinct.[5][6]
