Xerula megalospora is a species of gilled mushroom in the family Physalacriaceae.
The Physalacriaceae are a family of fungi in the order Agaricales. Species in the family have a widespread distribution, ranging from the Arctic, (Rhizomarasmius), to the tropics, e.g. Gloiocephala, and from marine sites (Mycaureola) and fresh waters (Gloiocephala) to semiarid forests (Xerula).
Xerula australis is a species of gilled mushroom in the family Physalacriaceae that is found in Australia. It was originally described in 1984 by German mycologist Heinrich Dörfelt.
Oudemansiella australis is a species of gilled mushroom in the family Physalacriaceae. It is found in Australasia, where it grows on rotting wood. It produces fruit bodies that are white, with caps up to 5.5 cm (2.2 in) in diameter, attached to short, thick stems.
Mycaureola is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae of mushrooms. Circumscribed in 1922 by French mycologists René Maire and Émile Chemin, the genus is monotypic, containing the single species Mycaureola dilseae. The fungus is a parasite of the red algal species Dilsea carnosa, on which it causes circular necrotic lesions.
Oudemansiella is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. The genus contains about 15 species that are widely distributed in tropical and temperate regions. Yang and colleagues revised the genus in a 2009 publication, describing several new species and several varieties. They classified species in the genus into four sections based on the structure of the cap cuticle: Oudemansiella, Mucidula, Dactylosporina, and Radicatae.
Rhizomarasmius is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae, containing about five species.
Dactylosporina is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. D. brunneomarginata, the first representative of the genus found in Asia, was added to Dactylosporina in 2015.
Panellus is a genus of more than 50 mushroom species of fungi in the family Mycenaceae as defined molecularly. Prior to molecular analyses the generic name had been used for any white-spored pleurotoid with amyloid spores. Unrelated but similar species are now classified in Sarcomyxa and Scytinotus. In older guides and other literature the type species had been placed in either Pleurotus or Panus and the poroid species had been classified in the synonymous genus Dictyopanus or in broadly defined genera like Polyporus (Polyporaceae) or the more closely allied Favolaschia (Mycenaceae). The closest molecular allies are Resinomycena and Cruentomycena.
Cribbea is a genus of secotioid fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. The genus has a widespread distribution in southern temperate areas, and, according to a 2008 estimate, contains four species. A new species, Cribbea turbinispora, was reported from Australia in 2009, and in the same publication, C. lamellata was synonymized with C. gloriosa. The genus is named after mycologist Joan Cribb, in recognition of her contribution to fungal taxonomy.
Amanita australis is a species of fungus in the family Amanitaceae. It produces small- to medium-sized fruit bodies, with brown caps up to 9 centimetres in diameter covered with pyramidal warts. The gills on the underside of the cap are white, closely crowded together, and free from attachment to the stem. The stem, up to 9 cm long, has a ring and a bulbous base. The mushroom may be confused with another endemic New Zealand species, A. nothofagi, but can be distinguished by differences in microscopic characteristics.
Clavulinopsis amoena is a clavarioid fungus in the family Clavariaceae. It forms slender, cylindrical, golden-yellow fruiting bodies that grow on the ground among plant litter. It was originally described from Indonesia and appears to be distributed in temperate areas of the southern hemisphere.
Laccariopsis is an agaric fungal genus with a rooting stipe, and a superficial resemblance to Laccaria. A monotypic genus, it contains the single species Laccariopsis mediterranea, which grows in sand dunes around the Mediterranean Sea on shores and colonizes Ammophila and Juniperus roots. Phylogenetically it is placed in the Physalacriaceae.
Clavulinopsis helvola is a clavarioid fungus in the family Clavariaceae. In the UK, it has the recommended English name of yellow club. It forms slender, cylindrical, yellow fruiting bodies that grow on the ground in agriculturally unimproved grassland or in woodland litter. It was originally described from Europe.
Hymenopellis is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. The genus was described by mycologist Ron Petersen in 2010. The type species is Hymenopellis radicata, originally described by British botanist Richard Relhan in 1780 as Agaricus radicatus.
Ponticulomyces is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. The genus was described by American mycologist Ron Petersen in 2010. It includes the type species Ponticulomyces kedrovayae, known from Pacific maritime Russia, and the Chinese species P. orientalis, originally described as a member of Oudemansiella in 2000. Both species were reported from Japan in 2012. The generic name, which derives from ponticulus, and myces ("fungus"), suggests a bridge between taxonomic characters common to the genera Oudemansiella and Hymenopellis.
Oudemansiella canarii is a species of gilled mushroom in the family Physalacriaceae. It is found in tropical America, southeast Asia, and Australia, where it grows as a saprotroph on hardwood logs.
Clavulinopsis laeticolor is a clavarioid fungus in the family Clavariaceae. In the UK, it has the recommended English name of handsome club. It forms slender, cylindrical, yellow fruit bodies that grow on the ground in woodland litter or in agriculturally unimproved grassland. It was originally described from Cuba and is part of a species complex as yet unresolved.
Paraxerula is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. It was circumscribed in 2010 by mycologist Ron Petersen to replace Xerula section Hyalosetae, proposed by Heinrich Dörfelt in 1984. Petersen originally included P. caussei, P. hongoi, and the type species P. americana. The Chinese species P. ellipsospora was added to the genus in 2014.
