'''''Coprinellus''''' is a genus of mushroom-forming fungi in the family Psathyrellaceae. The genus was circumscribed by the Finnish mycologist Petter Adolf Karsten in 1879.<ref name="Karsten 1879">{{cite journal |author=Karsten |year=1879 |title=Rysslands, Finlands och den Skandinaviska halföns Hattsvampar.

Molecular studies published in 2001 redistributed ''Coprinus'' species to ''Psathyrella'', or the segregate genera ''Coprinopsis'' and ''Coprinellus''.<ref name="Redhead 2001">{{cite journal |vauthors=Redhead SA, Vilgalys R, ((Moncalvo J-M)), Johnson J, Hopple JS |year=2001 |title=''Coprinus'' Pers. and the disposition of ''Coprinus'' species ''sensu lato'' |journal=Taxon |volume=50 |issue=1 |pages=203–241 |doi=10.2307/1224525 |jstor=1224525}}</ref>

In 2020, phylogenetic analysis conducted by the German mycologists Dieter Wächter & Andreas Melzer reclassified many ''Coprinellus'' species as belonging to the new genus ''Tulosesus''.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Wächter |first1=Dieter |last2=Melzer |first2=Andreas |date=2020-11-01 |title=Proposal for a subdivision of the family Psathyrellaceae based on a taxon-rich phylogenetic analysis with iterative multigene guide tree |url=https://doi.org/10.1007/s11557-020-01606-3 |journal=Mycological Progress |language=en |volume=19 |issue=11 |pages=1151–1265 |doi=10.1007/s11557-020-01606-3 |bibcode=2020MycPr..19.1151W |s2cid=228976812 |issn=1861-8952|url-access=subscription }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Species Fungorum - Tulosesus |url=http://www.speciesfungorum.org/names/names.asp?strGenus=Tulosesus&GSD=Yes |access-date=2022-07-14 |website=www.speciesfungorum.org}}</ref>

{{As of|2022|July}}, Index Fungorum accepted 62 species of ''Coprinellus''. In recent years many species were added to the genus having mostly been moved from ''Coprinus'' whilst numerous species were removed and placed in the genus ''Tulosesus'' in 2020. One species was moved to the monotypic genus ''Punjabia.'' The total number of accepted species has not changed greatly from the 66 in 2019, however many species have been moved. Due to the significant changes to this genus recently many old synonyms are likely to still be in use. {{As of|2026|February}}, there were 73 accepted species of ''Coprinellus'' in Index Fungorum.

Many of these species appear similar and require microscopic analysis to differentiate and identify.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Species Fungorum - Coprinellus |url=http://www.speciesfungorum.org/names/names.asp?strGenus=Coprinellus |access-date=2022-07-14 |website=www.speciesfungorum.org}}</ref> {{Columns-list| # ''Coprinellus alkalinus'' (Anastasiou) Voto (2021) # ''Coprinellus alvesii'' P.
