The species was described in 2011 by the mycologists Dimitar Bojantchev and R. Michael Davis who classified it as "Cortinarius xanthodryophilus."
In 2022 the species was transferred from "Cortinarius" and reclassified as "Calonarius xanthodryophilus" based on genomic data.

It should not be consumed due to its similarity to deadly poisonous species.
