Digitatispora is a genus of crustlike marine fungi. While previously placed in the order Atheliales, molecular studies have concluded that Digitatispora belongs in the Agaricales, within the family Niaceae. [2] [3] The genus, circumscribed by French mycologist Gaston Doguet in 1962, contains two wood-decaying species that grow on marine-submerged wood. [4]
