Coprinopsis romagnesiana é um cogumelo tinta pertencente a um género conhecido pela autodigestão, onde as lâminas se dissolvem num líquido de tinta à medida que os esporos amadurecem. Cresce em esterco, solo adubado ou matéria orgânica em decomposição em habitats abertos nas regiões temperadas. Como outros cogumelos tinta, desempenha um papel como decompositor saprotrófico de substratos orgânicos ricos em azoto.
