Phellodon rufipes Maas Geest. (1971) | |
Phellodon rufipes is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. It was described as new to science in 1971 by Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus, from collections made in Japan. [1]
Hydnellum is a genus of tooth fungi in the family Bankeraceae. Widely distributed in the Northern Hemisphere, the genus contains around 40 species. The fruitbodies of its members grow by slowly enveloping nearby bits of grass and vegetation. There is great variability in the form of Hydnellum fruitbodies, which are greatly influenced by environmental conditions such as rainfall and humidity, drying winds, and temperature. They are too tough and woody to eat comfortably. Several species have become the focus of increasing conservation concern following widespread declines in abundance.
Phellodon is a genus of tooth fungi in the family Bankeraceae. Species have small- to medium-sized fruitbodies with white spines on the underside from which spores are released. All Phellodon have a short stalk or stipe, and so the genus falls into the group known as stipitate hydnoid fungi. The tough and leathery flesh usually has a pleasant, fragrant odor, and develops a cork-like texture when dry. Neighboring fruitbodies can fuse, sometimes producing large mats of joined caps. Phellodon species produce a white spore print, while the individual spores are roughly spherical to ellipsoid in shape, with spiny surfaces.
Climacodon is a widespread genus of tooth fungi in the family Phanerochaetaceae.
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.
Steccherinum is a widely distributed genus of toothed crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae.
The hydnoid fungi are a group of fungi in the Basidiomycota with basidiocarps producing spores on pendant, tooth-like or spine-like projections. They are colloquially called tooth fungi. Originally such fungi were referred to the genus Hydnum, but it is now known that not all hydnoid species are closely related.

Melanie Henriëtte Maas Geesteranus is a retired Dutch politician and businesswoman. A member of the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD), she served as Minister of Infrastructure and the Environment from 2010 to 2017.
Auriscalpium umbella is a species of fungus in the family Auriscalpiaceae of the Russulales order. Described by the Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus in 1971, it is known from New Zealand.
Phellodon sinclairii is a native tooth fungus found in beech forests of New Zealand. It was first described by Miles Joseph Berkeley in 1867 as a species of Hydnum in Joseph Dalton Hooker's work Handbook of the New Zealand Flora. The type locality was on Maungatua. Gordon Herriot Cunningham transferred the species to the genus Phellodon in 1958.
Hydnellum fraudulentum is a tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in Australia, it was described as new to science in 1971 by Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus from collections made in Victoria.
Hydnellum papuanum is a tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in Papua New Guinea, it was described as new to science in 1971 by Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus.
Hydnellum staurastrum is a tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in Malaysia, it was described as new to science in 1971 by Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus.
Hydnellum crustulinum is a tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in Punjab, India, it was described as new to science in 1971 by Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus.
Phellodon plicatus is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in Australia, it was first described in 1925 by Curtis Gates Lloyd as a species of Hydnum. Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus transferred it to the genus Phellodon in 1966.
Phellodon maliensis is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in Australia, it was originally described as a new species by Curtis Gates Lloyd in 1923. It was originally placed in Hydnum, until Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus transferred it to the genus Phellodon in 1966.
Sarcodon conchyliatus is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in Malaysia, it was described as new to science in 1971 by Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus. The fruit bodies have finely tomentose caps that are dull ochraceous, greyish or brownish, and typically have drab to purplish tinges. The spines on the cap underside are not decurrent on the stipe. Maas Geesteranus placed the fungus in the section Virescentes, along with S. atroviridis and S. thwaitesii, all species with flesh that dries to a deep olive green color.
Sarcodon humilis is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. Found in Malaysia, it was described as new to science in 1971 by Dutch mycologist Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus.
Sarcodon thwaitesii is a species of tooth fungus in the family Bankeraceae. It is found in Asia, Europe, and New Zealand, where it fruits on the ground in mixed forest.
Mycorrhaphium stereoides is a species of tooth fungus in the family Steccherinaceae. The fungus was first described by Mordecai Cubitt Cooke in 1892 as Hydnum stereoides. The original specimens were collected in Perak, Malaysia, where they were found growing on a tree trunk. Rudolph Arnold Maas Geesteranus transferred it to the genus Mycorrhaphium in 1971.
