Hygrophoropsis purpurascens is a species of fungus in the family Hygrophoropsidaceae. Originally described by Miles Joseph Berkeley and Moses Ashley Curtis in 1869 as Marasmius purpurascens,[1] it was transferred to the genus Hygrophoropsis by Richard Dennis in 1952. It has been collected from Trinidad, Venezuela, Jamaica, and Cuba, where it grows on rotting logs in forests.[2]
