Hi Ernst,
According to Catalogue of life Ramaria mycellosa is a synonym of Phaeoclavulina myceliosa.
While Phaeoclavulina flaccida has other synonyms: Ramaria flaccida and Ramaria crispula.
How do you thing, which should be the correct name:
Phaeoclavulina flaccida or Phaeoclavulina myceliosa? Posted 4 months ago, modified 4 months ago

  Hi Jivko.
  First I looked at Phaeoclavulina myceliosa. but I could not get any indication that it occurred in the erea where I observed it.
  Searching on ALA ,it came up with the right location. That is what I used to consider Phaeoclavulina flaccid a as the one. Posted 4 months ago

    OK, it turned out that there is a record already in JD of Ramaria flaccida, which has a Wikipedia page. With mushrooms it is quite confused - different sources indicate one name as accepted, another as a synonym and vice versa. So, for now, let's leave this name as the main one.
