The Polyporaceae are a family of poroid fungi belonging to the Basidiomycota. The flesh of their fruit bodies varies from soft to very tough. Most members of this family have their hymenium in vertical pores on the underside of the caps, but some of them have gills or gill-like structures. Many species are brackets, but others have a definite stipe – for example, Polyporus badius.

Entoloma murrayi, commonly known as the yellow unicorn Entoloma or the unicorn pinkgill, is a species of fungus in the Entolomataceae family. First described from New England (USA) in 1859, the species is found in eastern North America, Central and South America, and southeast Asia, where it grows on the ground in wet coniferous and deciduous forests. The fungus produces yellow mushrooms that have a characteristic sharp umbo on the top of a conical cap. The mushroom is inedible and may be poisonous. Other similar species can be distinguished from E. murrayi by differences in color, morphology, or microscopic characteristics.
Pluteus aethalus is a species of agaric fungus in the family Pluteaceae. It is found in Cuba. The species was originally named Agaricus aethalus by Miles Joseph Berkeley & Moses Ashley Curtis in 1869, and later transferred to the genus Pluteus by Pier Andrea Saccardo in 1887. It is classified in Pluteus section Celluloderma, subsection Mixtini.

Rolf Singer transferred it to the genus Mycena in 1962, where it is classified in the section Calodontes. First described from Cuba, it is also found in Trinidad, Africa, Mexico, and Central America and South America.Nicolas Niveirio, Orlando F. Popoff, and Edgardo O. Alberto, classify Mycena Holoporphyra for their distinguishable basiodiocarps that are violet or purple, having a radish like smell, fungal tissues, and a lack of pleurocystidia. In addition, Pegler, describes the species as having a pale cream spore print with spores of ellipse cylindrical to oblong cylindric, hyaline and deeply amyloid.
