Neoclitocybe is a genus of fungi in the family Tricholomataceae. The widespread genus contains 10 species that are especially prevalent in tropical regions. [1]
As of July 2022 [update] , Index Fungorum accepted 23 species of Neoclitocybe.
Macrolepiota is a genus of white spored, gilled mushrooms of the family Agaricaceae. The best-known member is the parasol mushroom (M. procera). The widespread genus contains about 40 species.
Perenniporia is a cosmopolitan genus of bracket-forming or crust-like polypores in the family Polyporaceae. They are dimitic or trimitic with smooth, thick-walled basidiospores and cause a white rot in affected wood.
Lentinus is a genus of fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The genus is widely distributed, with many species found in subtropical regions.
Hygrophoropsis is a genus of gilled fungi in the family Hygrophoropsidaceae. It was circumscribed in 1888 to contain the type species, H. aurantiaca, a widespread fungus that, based on its appearance, has been affiliated with Cantharellus, Clitocybe, and Paxillus. Modern molecular phylogenetic analysis shows that the genus belongs to the suborder Coniophorineae of the order Boletales.
Cystolepiota is a genus of mushroom-forming fungi in the family Agaricaceae.
Arthrosporella is a fungal genus in the family Tricholomataceae. It is a monotypic genus, containing the single species Arthrosporella ditopa, found in South America. The genus was described by mycologist Rolf Singer in 1970.
Leucoinocybe is a fungal genus in the family Tricholomataceae. This genus is known to contain 3 species: Leucoinocybe lenta and Leucoinocybe taniae, found in Europe, and Leucoinocybe sulcata found in India.
Phyllotopsis is a genus of fungi in the family Tricholomataceae. The widespread genus contain five species that are predominantly in temperate regions.
Squamanita is a parasitic genus of agaric fungi formerly classified in the family Tricholomataceae and is now in the Cystodermateae in the Squamanitaceae. The fruitbodies of this genus resemble a normal agaric but they emerge from parasitized fruitbodies of other agarics that Squamanita has deformed. The deformation may be massive and the host may then resemble a lump, or the deformation may be so subtle that the Squamanita appears to be grafted onto the stipe of the host that nearly always fails to form a pileus. Because of the seamless graft-like attachment or the severe deformation of the host into a nonrecognizable blob, early descriptions included features of the host in descriptions of Squamanita as if they were parts of the parasite. This error led to the creation of a separate subgenus because of misinterpretation of host veil tissue as part of the parasite and ultimately a separate genus, Dissoderma. Serendipitous discovery of one parasitized host fruitbody (Galerina) that formed its own pileus that then bore three Squamanita contortipes fruitbodies revealed the parasitic nature of the relationship for that species and the entire genus. This discovery was so shocking that it was featured in Nature magazine under the title 'Mycological mystery tour'. Once the parasitic nature was revealed, the term 'protocarpic tuber' used by earlier authors for the parasitized host base was replaced by the term 'cecidiocarp'.
Clitocybula is a genus of mushroom-forming fungi in the family Marasmiaceae. The genus was circumscribed by Georges Métrod in 1952. Species in the genus are commonly known as "coincaps".
Amauroderma is a genus of polypore fungi in the family Ganodermataceae. The genus, widespread in tropical areas, contains about 70 species. Amauroderma fungi are wood-decay fungi that feed and fruit on decayed branches and trunks.
Lopharia is a genus of fungi in the family Polyporaceae. The genus was circumscribed by Károly Kalchbrenner and Peter MacOwan in 1881.
Tyromyces is a genus of poroid fungi in the family Polyporaceae. It was circumscribed by mycologist Petter Karsten in 1881. The type species is the widely distributed Tyromyces chioneus, commonly known as the white cheese polypore. The phylogenetic position of Tyromyces within the Polyporales is uncertain, but it appears that it does not belong to the "core polyporoid clade". Tyromyces is polyphyletic as it is currently circumscribed, and has been described as "a dumping place for monomitic white-rot species with thin-walled spores."
Thelephora is a genus of fungi in the family Thelephoraceae. The genus has a widespread distribution and contains about 50 species. Fruit bodies of species are leathery, usually brownish at maturity, and range in shape from coral-like tufts to having distinct caps. Almost all species in the genus are thought to be inedible, but Thelephora ganbajun is a gourmet fungus in Yunnan province of southwest China.
Callistosporium palmarum is a species of fungus in the family Tricholomataceae, and the type species of the genus Callistosporium. Originally named Gymnopus palmarum by William Alphonso Murrill in 1939, the species was transferred to the genus Callistosporium by Rolf Singer in 1944.
Neoclitocybe byssiseda is a species of fungus in the family Tricholomataceae, and the type species of the genus Neoclitocybe. Initially described as Omphalia byssiseda by Giacomo Bresadola in 1907, it was transferred to Neoclitocybe by Rolf Singer in 1961. The mushroom is edible.
Squamanita paradoxa, commonly known as powdercap strangler, is a species of fungus in the family Tricholomataceae. It is a parasitic fungus that grows as a gall on another fungus, Cystoderma amianthinum. The species was first described as Cystoderma paradoxum by American mycologists Alexander H. Smith and Rolf Singer in 1948, based on specimens collected in Mount Hood National Forest in Oregon. Cornelis Bas transferred the species to the genus Squamanita in 1965. In 2011, it was reported from Worcestershire, UK.
