Modern species designation:   Cortinarius collinitus (Pers.) Fr. (1838) (?)
Sowerby's species designation:  Agaricus collinitus
Sowerby's description:   On page 16
Later annotation on plate:  Agaricus collinitus Sow / 1795 ??? / Cortinarius cillinitus Fr H. E. 355 recedit
Notes:  Some mushroom books mention Sowerby in the authorship of Cortinarius collinitus - for instance, Bon[1] & Courtecuisse[2] give author as (Sow.) Fr. & (Sow.:Fr.) S.F.Gray. However, in Index Fungorum the species is not referred back to Sowerby's publication, implying that the mushroom which Sowerby drew may not be the same as the modern species.
