Galerina graminea, known as the turf bell is a species of mushroom in the genus Galerina. Unlike many Galerina mushrooms, it can survive in moss-free grass. It was known for many years as 'Galerina laevis', proposed by Christiaan Hendrik Persoon. Galerina means helmet-like, while graminea means "of grass". It is not known whether it is poisonous or not; however, it is suspected to be.[2]
