Marasmius cladophyllus is a species of fungus in the family Marasmiaceae. Found in South America and Central America, it was described as new to science by English mycologist Miles Joseph Berkeley in 1856. A characteristic feature of the mushroom is the prominent ventricose (vein-like) pattern of the gills.[2]
