Related to the genus ''Gomphidius'' (in which they were once classified), ''Chroogomphus'' are distinguished from ''Gomphidius'' by their lack of a partial veil. ''Chroogomphus rutilus'', found in Europe, is the type species.

Chroogomphus Rutilus
''Chroogomphus rutilus'', commonly known as the brown slimecap or the copper spike, is a species of fungus in the Gomphidiaceae family. First described scientifically as ''Agaricus rutilus'' by Jacob Christian Schäffer in 1774, it was transferred to the genus ''Chroogomphus'' in 1964 by Orson K. Miller, Jr. The fungus lives mycorrhiza, ectomycorrhizally with ''Pinus'' species, and is found in Europe and North America. The basidiocarp, fruit bodies are edible mushroom, edible but not highly regarded. ''Gomphidius viscidus'' is an old synonym of this mushroom.
