Description
Summary:Twenty-two Galerina species (one with two varieties) and one Phaeogalera species are recognised. Fourteen of the species are recorded for the first time in Greenland and G. chionophila Senn-Irlet is reported for the first time from the N Atlantic - Arctic region. Taxonomic, ecological and geographical features are discussed and a key is given to all taxa known to occur in the N Atlantic-Arctic region. Galerina terrestris Wells & Kempton is considered a later synonym of G. minima A.H. Sm. & Singer and G. badipes (Pers.) Gulden is redefined in the sense of Persoon.
