Cortinarius bergeronii is a mycorrhizal agaric fungus in the family Cortinariaceae, assessed as Endangered (EN). It forms ectomycorrhizal associations with trees in undisturbed forest habitats and produces characteristic cobweb-like cortina veils when young. Its endangered status reflects habitat loss through deforestation and forest management changes.

Cortinarius bivelus is a mycorrhizal agaric fungus in the family Cortinariaceae, assessed as Data Deficient (DD).
