Cortinarius clandestinus is a species of fungus in the Cortinariaceae family.[1] It was first described in 1932 by Calvin Henry Kauffman[1][2] from a specimen collected amongst moss under Douglas firs and hemlock at Lake Cushman, Washington.[2] Kauffman states that it is found in the states of New York, Colorado and Washington (state) .[2]
The cap is golden brown and dry, with dark brown fibrillose scales.[3] The flesh is yellowish (darker when fresh) and fairly fragile. It has an odour resembling radish.[3] The gills are close and yellowish. The stem is equal or somewhat clavate, with yellowish veil fibrils and perhaps a ring demarcation.[3]
The European species Cortinarius melanotus is similar, with a brownish veil on the stem. C. cotoneus is tougher, with lighter fibrils. C. venetus var. montanus is greenish, with a yellow veil when young and a tomentose cap.[3]
