The Gomphaceae are a diverse family of fungi belonging in what is classically known as the Phallales or cladistically as the gomphoid-phalloid clade . The family has 13 genera and 287 species. [1]
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).
Gautieria monticola is a species of hypogeal fungus in the family Gomphaceae. It was described as new to science in 1884 by American mycologist Harvey Willson Harkness. It is nonpoisonous, but smells strongly of sour milk.
Gloeocantharellus is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphaceae. It contains 12 species that are found in mainly tropical and subtropical regions.
Pseudogomphus is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphaceae. A monotypic genus, it contains the single species Pseudogomphus fragilissimus, found in Gabon.
Terenodon is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphaceae. A monotypic genus, it contains the single species Terenodon serenus, described by Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus in 1971.
Araeocoryne is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphaceae. The genus is monotypic, containing the single species Araeocoryne elegans, found in Malaysia.
Delentaria is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphaceae. The genus is monotypic, containing the single species Delentaria decurva, found in Brazil.
Destuntzia is a genus of truffle-like fungi in the family Gomphaceae. The genus contains five species found in North America. It is named after late American mycologist Daniel Elliot Stuntz.
Protogautieria is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphaceae. The genus contains two species found in North America.
Ramaricium is a genus of fungi in the family Gomphaceae. The genus contains three species that collectively have a widespread distribution.
Ramaria fennica, commonly known as the bitter coral, is a coral mushroom in the family Gomphaceae. It is found in Australia, Europe and North America.
Ramaria gelatinosa, commonly known as the gelatinous coral, is a coral mushroom in the family Gomphaceae. It is found in Europe and North America. The species was first described by Theodor Holmskjold in 1790.
Turbinellus is a genus of five species of fungi in the family Gomphaceae.
Ramaria flavescens is a species of coral fungus in the family Gomphaceae. It was first described as Clavaria flavescens by Jacob Christian Schäffer in 1762; American mycologist Ron Peterson transferred it to the genus Ramaria in 1974. The IUCN Red List labels this species as Critically Endangered in Denmark and as Data Deficient in the Czech Republic.
Ramaria gracilis is a species of coral fungus in the family Gomphaceae.
Ramaria aurea is a coral mushroom in the family Gomphaceae. It is found in North America and Europe. It is similar to R. flava; both species are edible.
Turbinellus stereoides, previously known as Gomphus stereoides, is a mushroom in the family Gomphaceae. It was originally described in 1996 by E. J. H. Corner as a species of Gomphus. The type collection was made in 1930 in Slim River, Malaysia.
Ramaria myceliosa is a species of coral fungus in the family Gomphaceae. Found in North America, it was originally described by Charles Horton Peck in 1904 with the name Clavaria myceliosa. The type was collected by botanist Edwin Bingham Copeland in the mountains near Stanford University in California. E.J.H. Corner transferred it to the genus Ramaria in 1950. Giachini and colleagues proposed that Ramaria myceliosa is the same species as the European Phaeoclavulina curta, but did not provide molecular evidence to support their suggested synonymy. In a recent (2014) publication on California fungi, the authors propose the transfer of Ramaria myceliosa to the genus Phaeoclavulina, but as of January 2016, this transfer has not been accepted by either MycoBank or Index Fungorum.
Gloeocantharellus purpurascens, commonly known as the Indian Creek mushroom or violet-staining chanterelle, is a species of fungus in the family Gomphaceae native to North America and French Guiana.
