Coprinopsis insignis es un hongo agaricáceo de la familia Psathyrellaceae, evaluado como Vulnerable (VU). Crece sobre madera en descomposición o restos leñosos en hábitats de bosque caducifolio maduro. Su estado vulnerable refleja el declive de los grandes sustratos de madera muerta en paisajes forestales gestionados.

Coprinopsis pseudofriesii es un pequeño hongo tinta emparentado con el hongo tinta alargado, con un sombrero gris pálido que se licua al madurar. Crece en suelos muy orgánicos, compost viejo y cerca de restos leñosos enterrados en bosques templados. Este hongo saprotrófico descompone la materia orgánica y el material leñoso en su hábitat de suelo forestal.
