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.
