Cantharellopsis is a tan- to whitish-colored bryophilous monotypic genus in the Hymenochaetales. The fruit bodies of the single species Cantharellopsis prescotii has a form intermediate between an Omphalina and a chanterelle ( Cantharellus ) because of its forked, fold-like gills. [1] [2] [3] [4] It inhabits moss on calcareous soils in temperate regions of Europe. [5] Phylogenetically related agarics are in the genera Contumyces , Gyroflexus , Loreleia , Rickenella and Blasiphalia , as well as the stipitate-stereoid genera Muscinupta and Cotylidia [6] and the clavarioid genus, Alloclavaria .

Etymology

Cantharellopsis is named in reference to its vague similarity to the genus Cantharellus and means, Cantharellus-like.
