Pyronemataceae
The Pyronemataceae are a family of fungi in the order Pezizales. It is the largest family of the Pezizales, encompassing 75 genera and approximately 500 species. Phylogenetic analyses does not support the prior classifications of this family, and suggest that the family is not monophyletic as it is currently circumscribed. Morphology Members of the family are diverse in ascomatal or cleistothecial form. Individual taxa may be sessile (without a stipe) to shortly stipitate, cupulate (cup-shaped), discoid (disc-shaped), pulvinate (cushion-shaped), or with turbinate (turban-shaped) epigeous apothecia. Also, taxa may be sub-hypogeous to hypogeous with closed, folded, or solid ascomata. Apothecia may range in size from less than 1 mm up to 12 cm in diameter, and may be brightly colored due to carotenoid pigments. Genera of the Pyronemataceae lack unifying macroscopic or microscopic characteristics; this lack of uniting characters has led various authors to propose a variety ...

Anthracobia
''Anthracobia'' is a genus of fungi in the family Pyronemataceae. The genus was circumscribed by Jean Louis Émile Boudier in 1885. ''Anthracobia'' is widely distributed in north temperate regions, and contains 15 species. Phylogenetic analyses suggest that the genus as currently circumscribed is polyphyletic A polyphyletic group is an assemblage of organisms or other evolving elements that is of mixed evolutionary origin. The term is often applied to groups that share similar features known as homoplasies, which are explained as a result of converg ....

Chaetothiersia
''Chaetothiersia'' is a fungal genus in the family Pyronemataceae. It is monotypic, containing the single species ''Chaetothiersia vernalis'' collected from the northern High Sierra Nevada of California. It has been found growing in groups on the decaying wood and bark of the conifer ''Abies magnifica''. Description This species is characterized by having stiff brown hairs on the surface of the ectal excipulum, the outer layer of the apothecium. The ectal excipulum is thin, and made of roughly spherical to somewhat spherical/angular cells. Its ascospores are smooth, and do not contain oil droplets. Etymology The etymology of the generic name is derived from the Greek ''chaeto'', meaning hairy (a reference to both the external hairs on the cups and to Dr. Thiers' first name), and "thiersia", in honor of mycologist Harry Thiers, one of the first to collect this specimen. Lookalikes Genera with species that bear a resemblance to ''C. vernalis'' include ''Geopora'', '' Humaria ...
