Inocephalus
The mushroom genera in the family Entolomataceae collectively contain over 1500 species, the large majority of which are in '' Entoloma''. There have been many different classifications of this group, and so the table below includes not only genera which are supposedly current, but also other proposed genera whose names have been important. For instance several taxa such as ''Leptonia'' and ''Nolanea'' were defined as independent genera, and are still sometimes used as such, but in recent classifications they have been demoted to being subgenera of ''Entoloma''. Previously there was a view that Entolomataceae with angular (polyhedral) spores should be classified in genus '' Entoloma'', those with bumpy spores should be in ''Rhodocybe'', and those with longitudinally ridged spores should be put in '' Clitopilus''. However DNA studies in 2009 and 2017 have changed this situation for the ''Rhodocybe''/''Clitopilus'' group. Firstly ''Clitopilus'' was found to be a clade embedded with ...

Entoloma
''Entoloma'' is a large genus of terrestrial pink-gilled mushrooms, with about 1,000 species. Most have a drab appearance, pink gills which are attached to the stem, a smooth thick cap, and angular spores. Many entolomas are saprobic but some are mycorrhizal. The best-known member of the genus is the livid agaric (''Entoloma sinuatum''), responsible for a number of poisonings over the years in Europe and North America, and '' Entoloma rhodopolium'' in Japan. Some southern hemisphere species such as ''Entoloma rodwayi'' and '' Entoloma viridomarginatum'' from Australia, and ''Entoloma hochstetteri'' from New Zealand, are very colourful, with caps of unusual shades of green and blue-green. Most entolomas are dull shades of olive, brown, or grey. Etymology The part '' ἐντός'' means "within, inside". The part "loma" is a noun-forming element derived from Greek '' λῶμ(α)'', "fringe, hem" and used in the botanical taxonomy for naming plants distinguished by having a fri ...

Leptonia
''Leptonia'' has been defined as a genus of small and medium sized pink-spored mushrooms that contains over 100 species. They are saprotrophic and most grow on the ground, but some are found on wood. The pileus (mycology), cap is thin and can be convex, plane, often depressed and usually has small scales. The lamella (mycology), gills are widely spaced, usually having wikt:adnexed, adnexed to wikt:adnate, adnate attachment (rarely they can be a little wikt:decurrent, decurrent) and the stipe (mycology), stalk is fragile. The basidiospore, spores are angular and are flesh colored to pink. Some ''Leptonia'' species have distinctive colors such as black, blue, green, yellow, and violet, but even these are difficult to identify. Most modern taxonomic authorities do not recognize ''Leptonia'' as a genus in its own right, but only as a subgenus of ''Entoloma''. Although little is known about the edible mushroom, edibility of mushrooms of this group, some are known to be poisonous ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Entolomataceae
The Entolomataceae, also known as Rhodophyllaceae, are a large family of pink-spored terrestrial gilled mushrooms which includes the genera ''Entoloma'', '' Rhodocybe'', and ''Clitopilus''. The family collectively contains over 1500 species, the large majority of which are in ''Entoloma''. Genera formerly known as ''Leptonia'' and ''Nolanea'', amongst others, have been subsumed into ''Entoloma''. Mushrooms in the Entolomataceae typically grow in woodlands or grassy areas and have attached gills, differentiating them from the Pluteaceae, which have free gills. Description The very large family Entolomataceae has a cosmopolitan distribution, and species are common in both temperate and tropical climates. Although the shape of the fruiting body and many microscopic characteristics are very diverse, it forms a well-defined group due to the distinctive spores: the spore print is pink (or brownish or greyish pink) and the spores are ornamented with bumps or ridges, or have a sharp-p ...

Rhodocyphella
''Rhodocyphella'' is a genus of cyphelloid fungi in the family Tricholomataceae. The Global Biodiversity Information Facility gives it as having two species, ''R. cupuliformis'' and ''R. grisea''. The well-established species ''Rhodocyphella cupuliformis'' (Berkeley & Ravenel) W.B. Cooke (1961) grows on Juniper trunks. The type specimen was found in McIntosh County, Georgia and it has also been found in New Zealand. ''R. grisea'' is the same as '' Cyphella grisea'' Petch (1922), which was found on tree bark in Sri Lanka. It is not recognized as a current species name in Species Fungorum. The paper by Bodensteiner et al. indicates that ''Rhodocyphella'' is closely linked to ''Resupinatus'' and ''Stigmatolemma''. But the latter genus is already merged with ''Resupinatus'' according tIndex Fungorum and it seems likely that ''Rhodocyphella'' should also be merged into the same taxon. ''Rhodocyphella'' is not to be confused with ''Rhodocybella'', which is also a small genus ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cyphelloid
The cyphelloid fungi are a group of fungi in the Basidiomycota that have disc-, tube-, or cup-shaped basidiocarps (fruit bodies), resembling species of discomycetes (or "cup fungi") in the Ascomycota. They were originally referred to the genus '' Cyphella'' ("cyphelloid" means ''Cyphella''-like) and subsequently to the family Cyphellaceae, but are now known to be much more diverse and are spread through several different genera and families. Since they are often studied as a group, it is convenient to call them by the informal (non-taxonomic) name of "cyphelloid fungi". Better known cyphelloid genera include ''Calyptella'', with stalked, cup- or bell-like fruit bodies; ''Lachnella'', with conspicuous, hairy-margined, disc-like fruit bodies; ''Flagelloscypha'' with smaller, but equally hairy, cup-like fruit bodies; ''Henningsomyces'' with tube-like fruit bodies; and ''Merismodes'' with clustered, hairy, cup-like fruit bodies.

Rhodocybella
''Rhodocybella'' is a genus of cyphelloid fungi in the Entolomataceae family. It contains just one known species, ''Rhodocybella rhododendri'', which is found in North America on ''Rhododendron'' stems after heavy rain. The white fruit bodies are mussel-shaped or cup-shaped and are up to across, either with no stipe, or with a very short one, no longer than . The fertile inner surface of the fruit body is pinkish and either has no gills at all, or shows only a rudimentary trace of them. The prefix ''Rhodo-'' means "red", ''cybe'' means "head", and ''-ella'' is a diminutive suffix. It is not to be confused with '' Rhodocyphella'', which is another small genus of cyphelloid fungi, but which belongs to family Tricholomataceae The Tricholomataceae are a large family of mushrooms within the Agaricales. Originally a classic "wastebasket taxon", the family included any white-, yellow-, or pink-spored genera in the Agaricales not already classified as belonging to e.g. the .... ...

Rhodocybe Gemina 20080828wc
''Rhodocybe'' is a small genus of small and medium-sized brownish-pink spored mushrooms, or (following recent mycological research) it is a subgroup of genus '' Clitopilus''. These mushrooms are saprotrophic and most grow on the ground, but some are found on wood. Most are drab in appearance, though a few have vivid colors. Description The cap shape can be convex, plane, or depressed. The gills usually have adnate to decurrent attachment, rarely notched and the stems of the mushrooms are highly variable, but always lack a veil or volva. The spores are flesh-colored to salmon to brownish pink. Microscopically the shape of the spores is important in defining the group. About 20 species of ''Rhodocybe'' have been documented in Europe, but ''R. gemina'' (sometimes wrongly named ''R. truncata'') is the commonest and best known, though rare in Britain. The type species is ''Rhodocybe caelata'' (Fr.) Maire. Little is known about the edibility of ''Rhodocybes'', but one promin ...
