“…The family Peniophoraceae sensu Larsson (2007) formed a strongly supported clade in Russulales and included about 15 genera (Larsson and Larsson 2003; Miller et al 2006; Larsson 2007; Leal-Dutra et al 2018). Except for the coralloid Lachnocladium Lév.…”

“…Whitney, Bandoni & Oberw., all the other genera in the family are corticioid fungi, such as Asterostroma Massee, Peniophora Cooke, Scytinostroma Donk and Vararia . However, recent molecular and morphological studies showed that two species of Parapterulicium Corner with coralloid basidiomata belong to Peniophoraceae in the Russulales rather than Pterulaceae of the Agaricales (Leal-Dutra et al 2018). In the phylogenetic tree, the type species, Parapteruliciumsubarbusculum Corner formed a distinct lineage, while P.octopodites Corner is closely related to Scytinostromagalactinum (Fr.)…”

Nine species of Dichostereum were subjected to phylogenetic analyses, based on a combined dataset of ITS1-5.8S-ITS2-nrLSU-tef1 sequences. The morphology of specimens collected from China and Australia were studied. Three species, D.austrosinense, D.boidinii and D.eburneum, collected from southern China, are described and illustrated as new to science, based on the morphological and molecular evidence. Dichostereumaustrosinense is characterised by the relatively large gloeocystidia (80–130 × 8–15 µm) and basidiospores (7.3–8 µm in diam.) with large warts and crests. Dichostereumboidinii is distinguished by its thick basidiomata and relatively small basidiospores (5.5–6.5 µm in diam.) with large warts and crests. Dichostereumeburneum is unique in having pale basidiomata growing on bark of living Castanopsis, abundant crystals in the context and basidiospores with dense and large ornamentations. A key to the 5 species of Dichostereum in China is given.

“…Actiniceps Berk. & Broome was shown within Agaricales to be distantly related to Pterulaceae and Parapterulicium was removed to Russulales (Dentinger and McLaughlin 2006;Leal-Dutra et al 2018). Four resupinate genera were transferred to Pterulaceae: Aphanobasidium Jülich, Coronicium J. Erikss.…”

“…Pterulaceae has attracted more attention recently following the discovery of two distinct symbionts of fungus-farming ants in the genus Apterostigma Mayr being included in several phylogenetic and ecological studies (Matheny et al 2006;Hibbett 2007;Dentinger et al 2009;Binder et al 2010;Leal-Dutra 2015). Despite the absence (hitherto) of any teleomorph, phylogenetic analyses placed both species [Pterula nudihortorum Dentinger and Pterula velohortorum Dentinger, previously known as G2 and G4 (Dentinger 2014)] in a strongly supported clade within Pterulaceae (Munkacsi et al 2004;Villesen et al 2004).…”

Pterulaceae was formally proposed to group six coralloid and dimitic genera [Actiniceps (=Dimorphocystis), Allantula, Deflexula, Parapterulicium, Pterula and Pterulicium]. Recent molecular studies have shown that some of the characters currently used in Pterulaceae Corner do not distinguish the genera. Actiniceps and Parapterulicium have been removed and a few other resupinate genera were added to the family. However, none of these studies intended to investigate the relationship between Pterulaceae genera. In this study, we generated 278 sequences from both newly collected and fungarium samples. Phylogenetic analyses support by morphological data allowed a reclassification of Pterulaceae where we propose the introduction of Myrmecopterula gen. nov. and Radulomycetaceae fam. nov., the reintroduction of Phaeopterula, the synonymisation of Deflexula in Pterulicium and 51 new combinations. Pterula is rendered polyphyletic requiring a reclassification; thus, it is split into Pterula, Myrmecopterula gen. nov., Pterulicium and Phaeopterula. Deflexula is recovered as paraphyletic alongside several Pterula species and Pterulicium, and is sunk into the latter genus. Phaeopterula is reintroduced to accommodate species with darker basidiomes. The neotropical Myrmecopterula gen. nov. forms a distinct clade adjacent to Pterula, and most members of this clade are associated with active or inactive attine ant nests. The resupinate genera Coronicium and Merulicium are recovered in a strongly supported clade close to Pterulicium. The other resupinate genera previously included in Pterulaceae, and which form basidiomes lacking cystidia and with monomitic hyphal structure (Radulomyces, Radulotubus and Aphanobasidium), are reclassified into Radulomycetaceae fam. nov. Allantula is still an enigmatic piece in this puzzle known only from the type specimen that requires molecular investigation. A key for the genera of Pterulaceae and Radulomycetaceae fam. nov. is provided here.

Agarics (gilled mushrooms) and the order Agaricales include some of the best‐known and most charismatic fungi. However, neither group has had its constituent genera exhaustively compiled in a modern phylogenetic context. To provide that framework, we identified and analyzed 1383 names of genera of agarics (regardless of taxonomic placement) and the Agaricales (regardless of morphology), compiling various data for each name. Including 590 accepted names, the other 793 listed with reasons explaining their disuse, this compendium is intended to be comprehensive at present and phylogenetically up‐to‐date. Data we gathered included type species, continents from which type species were described, accepted synonyms of those species, current family placements, gross macromorphological categories, and sequenced loci (for type specimens, type species, and each genus as a whole). Index Fungorum provided a basis for the data, but much was manually confirmed, augmented, or corrected based on recent literature. Among accepted gilled genera, 82% belonged to the Agaricales; among accepted genera of Agaricales, 67% were gilled. Based on automated searches of GenBank and MycoCosm, 7% of generic names had DNA sequences of their type specimens, 68% had sequences of their type species, and 87% had sequences representing their genus. This leaves an estimated 103 accepted genera entirely lacking molecular data. Some subsets of genera have been sequenced relatively thoroughly (e.g., nidularioid genera and genera described from Europe); others relatively poorly (e.g., cyphelloid genera and genera described from Africa and tropical Asia). We also list nomenclaturally threatened and taxonomically doubtful genus and family names.
