Clavariaceae
The Clavariaceae are a family of fungi in the order Agaricales. Originally the family contained most of the clavarioid fungi (club and coral fungi), but in its current sense is more restricted, albeit with a greater diversity of basidiocarp (fruit body) forms. Basidiocarps are variously clavarioid or agaricoid (mushroom-shaped), less commonly corticioid (effused, crust-like) or hydnoid (with pendant spines). Taxonomy History Clavariaceae was originally circumscribed (as "Clavariae") by French botanist and mycologist François Fulgis Chevallier in 1826. It was one of five families (along with the Agaricaceae, Hydnaceae, Polyporaceae, and Thelephoraceae) that Elias Fries used to divide the Agaricales and Aphyllophorales in his influential work '' Systema Mycologicum''. The family served as a convenient placement for all genera containing species with superficially similar club or coral-like fruitbodies. It was first M.A. Donk and later E.J.H. Corner who realized that, in this br ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hodophilus
''Hodophilus'' is a genus of agarics (gilled fungi) in the family Clavariaceae. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are dull-coloured and have dry caps, rather distant, decurrent lamellae, white spores, and smooth, ringless stems. In Europe species are characteristic of old, unimproved grasslands (termed waxcap grasslands) which are a declining habitat, making them of conservation concern. Several species have a distinct odour of napthalene. Taxonomy History ''Hodophilus'' was described by French mycologist Roger Heim in 1957, but this was invalid because he did not include a Latin diagnosis for the genus, as was required by the rules of nomenclature at the time. The name ''Hodophilus'' was later (1958) validly published, but it was generally regarded as synonymous with the genus '' Camarophyllopsis''. Current Status Recent molecular research, based on cladistic analysis of DNA sequences, indicates that ''Hodophilus'' is monophyletic and forms a natural group distinct from ''Camaroph ...

Mucronella
''Mucronella'' is a genus of fungi in the family Clavariaceae. Species in the genus resemble awl-shaped teeth that grow in groups without a common subiculum (supporting layer of mycelium). Taxonomy The type species was originally named ''Hydnum calvum'' in a collaborative effort by the German botanist Johannes Baptista von Albertini and the American Lewis David de Schweinitz in 1805. Swedish mycologist Elias Magnus Fries transferred the species to the newly described genus ''Mucronella'' in 1874. Molecular phylogenetic analysis suggests that the genus is monophyletic, and is sister to the remainder of the Clavariaceae, confirming earlier suspicions that the taxa were phylogenetically related. It had previously been placed in the Russulales due to its amyloid spores, and its morphological similarity to some members of genus ''Hericium''. Description Fruitbodies of ''Mucronella'' species resemble hanging spines; they occur singly, scattered, or in groups. Colors range from whi ...

Camarophyllopsis
''Camarophyllopsis'' is a genus of agarics (gilled fungi) in the family Clavariaceae. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are dull-coloured and have dry caps, rather distant, decurrent lamellae, white spores, and smooth, ringless stems. In Europe species are characteristic of old, unimproved grasslands (termed waxcap grasslands) which are a declining habitat, making them of conservation concern. Taxonomy History ''Camarophyllopsis'' was circumscribed by Czech mycologist Josef Herink in 1958, with '' Camarophyllopsis schulzeri'' as the type and only species. Roger Heim had the year previously treated this group of species under the name ''Hodophilus'', but this was invalid because he did not include a Latin diagnosis for the genus, as was required by the rules of nomenclature at the time. Rolf Singer published ''Hygrotrama'' in March 1959 (with type species '' Hygrotrama dennisianum''), and the name ''Hodophilus'' (type species '' Hodophilus foetens'') was validly published in 1958.

Hirticlavula
''Hirticlavula'' is a fungal genus in the family Clavariaceae. It contains a single described species, ''Hirticlavula elegans''. Formally described in 2014, the fungus has been collected from Norway and Denmark. ''H. elegans'' produces white fruit bodies up to in height. Each fruit body contains a fertile head atop a hairy stem. The fruit bodies grow directly from dead bark or wood, where they feed as saprotrophs. Both morphological and ecological details are distinctive when compared to other clavarioid fungi. Taxonomy ''Hirticlavula elegans'' was described based on collections dating back to 1995. It was provisionally reported in 2009 in the proceedings of a 2008 conference, before being formally described in 2009 by Jens H. Petersen and Thomas Læssøe in an article in ''Karstenia'', coauthored with Marie L. Davey.Petersen, Davey, and Læssøe, p. 1. The specific name ''elegans'' is from the Latin meaning "elegant", and refers to how "pretty" the species's fruit bodie ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ramariopsis
''Ramariopsis'' is a genus of coral fungi in the family Clavariaceae. The genus has a collectively widespread distribution and contains about 40 species. The name means 'having the appearance of ''Ramaria. Taxonomy ''Ramariopsis'' was originally defined as a subgenus of ''Clavaria'' by Dutch mycologist Marinus Anton Donk in 1933. Several European species similar to the type, '' Clavaria kunzei'', were included: '' Clavaria subtilis'', '' Clavaria pyxidata'', '' Clavaria angulispora'', and '' Clavaria pulchella''. In Donk's concept, defining characteristics of the group included small, branching, fruitbodies with a stipe, and an almost cartilaginous consistency to the flesh. Spores are small and hyaline (translucent), spherical to ellipsoid, and have a surface ornamentation ranging from echinulate (spiny) to verruculose (covered with small warts). E.J.H. Corner promoted the subgenus to generic status in his 1950 world monograph of clavarioid fungi. Ron Petersen emended the genu ...

Hyphodontiella
''Hyphodontiella'' is a genus of two species of wood-inhabiting corticioid fungi. The genus contains two species found in Nordic countries. ''Hyphodontiella'' was circumscribed by Swedish mycologist Åke Strid in 1975. Originally classified in the family Corticiaceae along with most other corticioid fungi, it was moved to the Clavariaceae in 2007 .

Clavaria
''Clavaria'' is a genus of fungi in the family Clavariaceae. Species of ''Clavaria'' produce basidiocarps (fruit bodies) that are either cylindrical to club-shaped or branched and coral-like. They are often grouped with similar-looking species from other genera, when they are collectively known as the clavarioid fungi. All ''Clavaria'' species are terrestrial and most (if not all) are believed to be saprotrophic (decomposing dead plant material). In Europe, they are typical of old, mossy, unimproved grassland. In North America and elsewhere, they are more commonly found in woodlands. History ''Clavaria'' (the name is derived from the Latin "clava", a club) was first introduced as a genus name by Vaillant (1727), later accepted by Micheli (1729), and was one of the original genera used by Linnaeus in his ''Species Plantarum'' of 1753. It contained all species of fungi with erect, club-shaped or branched (coral-like) fruit bodies, including many that are now referred to the Ascomy ...

Ceratellopsis
''Ceratellopsis'' is a genus of fungi in the family Clavariaceae. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) grow gregariously on fallen wood, bark, and decaying plant material and are clavarioid, simple, small (under 2 mm tall), with an acute apex. Only two species are currently recognized; other species formerly placed in ''Ceratellopsis'' have been transferred to other genera or are nomina dubia In binomial nomenclature, a ''nomen dubium'' (Latin for "doubtful name", plural ''nomina dubia'') is a scientific name that is of unknown or doubtful application.

Clavarioid Fungi
The clavarioid fungi are a group of fungi in the ''Basidiomycota'' typically having erect, simple or branched basidiocarps (fruit bodies) that are formed on the ground, on decaying vegetation, or on dead wood. They are colloquially called club fungi and coral fungi. Originally such fungi were referred to the genus ''Clavaria'' ("clavarioid" means ''Clavaria''-like), but it is now known that clavarioid species are not all closely related. Since they are often studied as a group, it is convenient to retain the informal (non-taxonomic) name of "clavarioid fungi" and this term is frequently used in research papers. History ''Clavaria'' was one of the original genera created by Linnaeus in his ''Species Plantarum'' of 1753. It contained all species of fungi with erect, club-shaped or branched (coral-like) fruit bodies, including many that are now referred to the Ascomycota. Subsequent authors described over 1200 species in the genus. With increasing use of the microscope in the late ni ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Agaricales
The fungal order Agaricales, also known as gilled mushrooms (for their distinctive gills) or euagarics, contains some of the most familiar types of mushrooms. The order has 33 extant families, 413 genera, and over 13,000 described species, along with six extinct genera known only from the fossil record. They range from the ubiquitous common mushroom to the deadly destroying angel and the hallucinogenic fly agaric to the bioluminescent jack-o-lantern mushroom. History, classification and phylogeny In his three volumes of '' Systema Mycologicum'' published between 1821 and 1832, Elias Fries put almost all of the fleshy, gill-forming mushrooms in the genus ''Agaricus''. He organized the large genus into "tribes", the names of many of which still exist as common genera of today. Fries later elevated several of these tribes to generic level, but later authors—including Gillet, Karsten, Kummer, Quélet, and Staude—made most of the changes. Fries based his classification on ...

Aphyllophorales
The Aphyllophorales is an obsolete order of fungi in the Basidiomycota. The order is entirely artificial, bringing together a miscellany of species now grouped among the clavarioid fungi, corticioid fungi, cyphelloid fungi, hydnoid fungi, and poroid fungi.Kirk PM ''et al.'' (2008). ''Dictionary of the Fungi'' (10th Ed.). Wallingford: CABI. History The order Aphyllophorales was first proposed in 1922 by Carleton Rea.Rea C. (1922). ''British Basidiomycetaceae. A handbook of the larger British fungi''. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. ''A-phyllo-phora'' means 'not bearing gills', distinguishing the Aphyllophorales from the gilled agarics (mushrooms and toadstools) that Rea placed in the Agaricales. The Gasteromycetales and Heterobasidiomycetes were also excluded. As originally conceived, the Aphyllophorales contained the families Clavariaceae, Cyphellaceae, Fistulinaceae, Hydnaceae, Meruliaceae, Polyporaceae, Polystictaceae, and Thelephoraceae. Most of these families ar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
