importancia en estos estudios.

Surely "moixernó", a Catalonian name for a kind of mushroom, is related to "mousseron", too. That was the name that came to my mind when I read "mousseron". "Mussario" reminds me "amanita muscaria". :thinking: :)

I've seen that amanita muscaria is also called "matamoscas", so, you must be right. :thumbsup: :)
