Dichostereum is a genus of corticioid fungi in the Lachnocladiaceae family. The genus contains 13 species [1] that have a widespread distribution. [2]
The Russulales are an order of the Agaricomycetes,. According to the Dictionary of the Fungi, the order consists of 12 families, 80 genera, and 1767 species. According to Species Fungorum, the order contains 13 families, 117 genera, and 3,060 species.
Terfezia is a genus of truffle-like fungi within the Pezizaceae family. Terfezia species are commonly known as desert truffles. Some authorities consider this the type genus of the family Terfeziaceae, although phylogenetic analysis suggests that it nests within the Pezizaceae. The Dictionary of the Fungi suggests that the genus contains 12 species. A recent (2011) publication used molecular analysis to show that the American Terfezia species had been incorrectly classified, and moved Terfezia spinosa and Terfezia longii to Mattirolomyces and Stouffera, respectively; as a result, no Terfezia species are known to exist in North America.
Gomphus is a genus of cantharelloid fungi in the family Gomphaceae. Once presumed to be related to chanterelles, molecular study has shown them to be allied with stinkhorns and fairy clubs. The type species of the genus is the pig's ear (G. clavatus).
The Meripilaceae are a family of fungi in the order Polyporales. The family was circumscribed by Swiss mycologist Walter Jülich in 1982 with Meripilus as the type genus. A 2008 estimate placed 7 genera and 57 species in Meripilaceae. As of April 2018, Index Fungorum accepts 74 species in the family.
The Xenasmataceae are a family of crust fungi in the order Polyporales. The family was circumscribed in 1966 by German mycologist Franz Oberwinkler with Xenasma as the type genus. As of April 2018, Index Fungorum accepts 28 species in the family. Xenasmataceae fungi grow as saprobes on fallen wood and are known primarily from temperate areas.
Geopyxis is a genus of fungi in the family Pyronemataceae. The genus has a widespread distribution. Molecular phylogenetic studies published in 2007 suggest that the genus is not monophyletic.
Cylindrobasidium is a genus of corticioid fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. circumscribed by Swiss mycologist Walter Jülich in 1974, As of June 2015, Index Fungorum lists eight species in the genus.
Cashiella is a genus of fungi in the family Dermateaceae. The genus contains four species. Cashiella, circumscribed in 1951 by Franz Petrak, is named in honor of American mycologist Edith Katherine Cash.
Ascocoryne is a genus of fungi in the family Helotiaceae. It was circumscribed in 1967 by James Walton Groves and Doreen Wilson as a genus segregate from Coryne. As of March 2015, Index Fungorum places five species in Ascocoryne.
Xenodium is a genus of fungi in the family Elsinoaceae.
Bovistella is a genus of puffball fungi in the family Agaricaceae. The genus was circumscribed by mycologist Andrew Price Morgan in 1892.
Henningsomyces is a genus of fungi in the family Marasmiaceae.
Merulius is a genus of poroid fungi in the family Meruliaceae. As of October 2017, Index Fungorum accepts two species in Merulius: M. debriscola, and the type, M. tremellosus.
Hapalopilus is a genus of poroid fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The genus is widely distributed. The generic name combines the Ancient Greek words ἁπαλός ("tender") and πιλος ("cap"). Hapalopilus was circumscribed by Finnish mycologist Petter Adolf Karsten in 1881.
Microporus is a genus of fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The genus has a widespread distribution and, according to a 2008 estimate, contains 11 species. The genus name combines the Ancient Greek words μικρός ("small") and πόρος ("pore").
Spongipellis is a genus of fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The genus is widely distributed and contains ten species. The genus was circumscribed by French mycologist Narcisse Théophile Patouillard in 1887. The genus name combines the Latin words spongia ("sponge") and pellis ("skin").
Clavulinopsis is a genus of coral fungi in the family Clavariaceae. The genus, first described scientifically by Casper van Overeem in 1923, has a widespread distribution.
Cystangium is a genus of fungi in the family Russulaceae. The genus contains 32 species that are distributed in Australia and South America. Cystangium was described by American mycologists Rolf Singer and Alexander H. Smith in 1960.
Lindtneria is a genus of fungi in the family Stephanosporaceae. As of March 2015, Index Fungorum accepts nine species in the genus. It is named after Serbian mycologist Vojteh Lindtner (1904–1965).
Hysterangium is a genus of truffle-like fungi in the family Hysterangiaceae. The genus is widespread, especially in temperate regions, and contains more than 60 species. Hysterangium was circumscribed by Italian mycologist Carlo Vittadini in 1831.
