Haasiella is a fungal genus in the family Hygrophoraceae. [4] It is a monotypic genus that contains only the species Haasiella venustissima. [1] Haasiella splendidissima, formerly considered to be a distinct species based on its 4-spored basidia, was found by a DNA study to be synonymous with Haasiella venustissima. [1] Haasiella venustissima is only known from Europe and is saprotrophic on wood. [1] [5] Haasiella was described as a new genus in 1966 by Czech mycologists František Kotlaba and Zdeněk Pouzar. [6] It is most closely related to the genus Hygrophorus. [1]
The genus name is in honour of Hans Haas, a German mycologist, who was a specialist on Agaricus from Schnait near Stuttgart. [7]
