The secotioid species Agaricus deserticola used to be named Secotium texense before its strong connection to Agaricus caused it to be reclassified. Similarly, in New Zealand Clavogaster virescens was described as both Secotium superbum and Secotium virescens, Leratiomyces erythrocephalus as Secotium erythrocephalum and Psilocybe weraroa as Secotium novae-zelandicus.
