Hygrocybe lepida is an agaric (gilled mushroom) in the family Hygrophoraceae. The species occurs in Europe and was previously referred to the American Hygrocybe cantharellus but is now known to be distinct. Its recommended English name (as H. cantharellus) is goblet waxcap. The species is typically found in nutrient-poor waxcap grassland.
