Lyophyllaceae
The Lyophyllaceae is a family of fungi in the order Agaricales. A 2008 estimate indicated eight genera and 157 species; , the Catalog of Life lists 13 genera in the family. Lyophyllaceae was circumscribed by mycologist Walter Jülich in 1981. Some species are popular as edible fungi, such as the brown beech mushroom ''Hypsizygus tessellatus'' and '' Lyophyllum shimeji''.

Sphagnurus
''Sphagnurus'' is a parasitic mushroom genus in the family Lyophyllaceae that creates conspicuous dead patches on peat moss (''Sphagnum'') in bogs. The genus contains one species known to inhabit Eurasia and North America. Phylogenetically the genus is closest to, but is isolated from species now classified in the genus ''Sagaranella'' Prior to molecular analyses, the most recent classification put it in the genus ''Tephrocybe'', but that genus is allied to ''Termitomyces''. ''Sphagnurus paluster'', the single species in the genus is pale grey and has a mycenoid stature (i.e. has a conical pileus (mycology), pileus, a narrow elongated stipe (mycology), stipe and lacks an annulus (mycology), annulus or volva (mycology), volva). Its basidiospores are nonamyloid and smooth. It lacks cystidia, cheilocystidia and pleurocystidia. Clamp connections are present. Etymology The name ''Sphagnurus'' is supposed to be derived from the name of its host ''Sphagnum'' and Latin ''-urus'', mean ...

Myochromella
''Myochromella'' is a mushroom genus in the family Lyophyllaceae that has been segregated from both ''Lyophyllum'' and ''Tephrocybe'' using molecular analyses and was first informally labelled clade 'mycochromella' or section 'Tephrophana p.p.' before being recognized as a genus. The species resemble grey colored ''Collybia''s and grow in forests. Etymology The name ''Myochromella'' is coined from Greek in reference to ''myo-'' (mouse), ''chromo-''(color) and Latin suffix ''-ella'' (small), hence "little mouse color".

Sagaranella
''Sagaranella'' is a mushroom genus in the family Lyophyllaceae that has been segregated from both ''Lyophyllum'' and ''Tephrocybe'' using molecular analyses. The species resemble grey colored ''Collybia''s and grow in nitrogen-rich environments. Etymology The name ''Sagaranella'' honours Professor Naohiko Sagara, a Japanese mycologist who has extensively studied ammonia fungi such as this genus.

Blastosporella
''Blastosporella'' is a fungal genus in the family Lyophyllaceae. The genus is monotypic, containing the single South American species ''Blastosporella zonata'', described as new to science in 2007. The fungus produces fruit bodies characterized by producing spherical balls of blastospores that cover the cap surface in maturity.

Ossicaulis
''Ossicaulis'' is a ditypic genus of mushrooms in the family Lyophyllaceae. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed in 1985 to contain the species originally described as ''Agaricus lignatilis'' by Christian Hendrik Persoon in 1801. This was considered the sole species in the genus until 2007, when Marco Contu validly published a description of '' O. lachnopus'' from collections in Italy. Recent analysis (2013) confirms that '' O. lachnopus'' and '' O. lignatilis'' should be considered distinct species. Molecular genetics analysis suggests that ''Ossicaulis'' is most closely related to the genera '' Asterophora'', '' Hypsizygus'', ''Lyophyllum'', and '' Tricholomella''. Description ''Ossicaulis'' species have gills that are adnexed, adnate or somewhat decurrent and a stipe that is centrally or laterally attached to the cap. The hyphal system is monomitic (meaning only generative hyphae are present), the trama is regular, and there are clamp connections in the hyphae ...

Tricholomella
''Tricholomella'' is a fungal genus in the family Lyophyllaceae. The genus is monotypic, containing the single species ''Tricholomella constricta'', described as new to science by Ukrainian mycologist Mariya Yakovlevna Zerova in 1979. Zerova's original publication was invalid, and it was later republished validly by Kuulo Kalamees in 1992. The fungus is found in Asia and Europe.

''Lyophyllum'' is a genus of fungus in the Lyophyllaceae family. The genus is monotypic In biology, a monotypic taxon is a taxonomic group (taxon) that contains only one immediately subordinate taxon. A monotypic species is one that does not include subspecies or smaller, infraspecific taxa.

Gerhardtia
''Gerhardtia'' is a genus of fungi in the family Lyophyllaceae. It was circumscribed in 1994 by French mycologist Marcel Bon, with '' Gerhardtia incarnatobrunnea'' as the type species. It is distinguished from similar genera by having spores with an irregular outline. Some authorities place ''Gerhardtia'' in synonymy with ''Lyophyllum''. The New Zealand species '' Gerhardtia pseudosaponacea'', described as new to science in 2014, is similar in appearance to ''Tricholoma saponaceum ''Tricholoma saponaceum'', also known as the soap-scented toadstool, soapy knight or soap tricholoma is an inedible mushroom found in woodlands in Europe and North America.

Termitomyces
''Termitomyces'' is a genus of basidiomycete fungi belonging to the family Lyophyllaceae. There are 30-40 species in the genus, all of which are completely dependent on termites to survive. They are the food source for a subfamily of termites, the Macrotermitinae, who enjoy an obligate symbiosis with the genus similar to that between '' Atta'' ants and '' Attamyces'' mushrooms. Despite this relationship, spore transfer is still accomplished mainly by shedding from mushrooms, which protrude from the termite mounds. Characteristics These mushrooms are edible for most people, and the larger species are a popular wild food where they occur. They include the largest edible mushroom in the world, '' Termitomyces titanicus'' of West Africa and Zambia, whose cap reaches 1 metre (3.28ft) in diameter. These fungi grow on 'combs' which are formed from the termites' excreta, dominated by tough woody fragments. ''Termitomyces'' was described by Roger Heim in 1942. From 1955 to 1969 Arthur Fr ...

Lyophyllum Decastes
''Lyophyllum decastes'', commonly known as the fried chicken mushroom, or chicken of the gravel, is an edible species of fungus in the family Lyophyllaceae that grows in clusters on disturbed ground, often near man-made roads in gravel, with a faintly radish-like taste. Description The caps are smooth, varied in color, and range from wide. The whitish-grayish stalks are long and wide. The spores are white. Gills are white but may yellow slightly with age. The firm flesh remains white on exposure. Ecology Growing in dense, even huge clusters on the ground, ''L. decastes'' is usually found where the ground has been disturbed such as roadbeds, gravel, paths, landscaping areas, and sometimes in woods. Range Prolific in summer and fall until spring on the U.S. West Coast, it is widely distributed in North America. Edibility This species is considered edible and good, but should be tried with caution due to some reports of gastric upset, as well as the possibility of confusing i ...
