The species was first described in 1801 by the South African-born mycologist Christiaan Hendrik Persoon as Agaricus irrigatus. It was subsequently combined in a number of different genera, before being transferred to Hygrocybe in 1976. The specific epithet comes from Latin "irrigatus" (= watered or bedewed), with reference to the viscid coating of the fruit bodies. Molecular research published in 2011, based on cladistic analysis of DNA sequences, showed that Hygrocybe irrigata did not belong in Hygrocybe sensu stricto and it was moved to the genus Gliophorus in 2013.

"According to Mabille it flies for 15—30 days at the end of January and beginning of February and the time of flight only occasionally extends to the end of March. I myself observed anaxibia in large numbers in Santa Catharina, in February, particiuarly in a side valley of the Capivary River. Here a crystal waterfall sprinkled the roots of the forest giants and thus provided a centre of attraction for butterflies" of all sorts. As a wild beast seeks out certain set tracks in order to reach the water, so anaxibia also haunts this spot daily, following up accidental clearings in order to gain the cascade, as if they also sought there for cooling refreshment among the softly rustling arches of the tall bamboos shaken and bedewed by the foaming water.

I have heard of a pie she raised in the form of a > goose trussed for the spit; the real goose was boned; a duck was boned and > laid within it; a fowl was boned and laid within the duck; a boned partridge > within the fowl; and a boned pigeon within the partridge. The whole having > been properly seasoned, the interstices were filled with rich gravy. Benjamin Disraeli in his novel Venetia describes an English dinner around 1770 that included > ...that masterpiece of the culinary art, a great battalia pie, in which the > bodies of chickens, pigeons, and rabbits, were embalmed in spices, cock's > combs, and savoury balls, and well bedewed with one of those rich sauces of > claret, anchovy, and sweet herbs ... [on] the cover of this pastry ... the > curious cook had contrived to represent all the once-living forms that were > now entombed in that gorgeous sepulchre. At some point, it became customary for game pies to be served cold.
