Paxillus filamentosus, commonly known as the alder roll-rim, is a basidiomycete fungus which is associated with alder (Alnus) in northern Europe and southwestern Greenland,[1] and North America.[2] It closely resembles Paxillus involutus, but its fruit bodies are generally smaller.[3]

Some sources regard Paxillus rubicundulus as a synonym,[4] but MycoBank and Index Fungorum treat it as different species.[5][6]
