Physalacriaceae
The Physalacriaceae are a family of fungi in the order Agaricales. Species in the family have a widespread distribution, ranging from the Arctic, ('' Rhizomarasmius''), to the tropics, e.g. '' Gloiocephala'', and from marine sites ('' Mycaureola'') and fresh waters ('' Gloiocephala'') to semiarid forests ('' Xerula''). Description Most species in the Physalacriaceae form fruit bodies with caps and stipes. They have a monomitic hyphal system (wherein only generative hypha are produced), and clamp connections are present in the hyphae. Basidia (spore-bearing cells) are club-shaped with two to four sterigmata. The basidiospores generally have ellipsoidal, spindle-like (fusiform), cylindrical, or tear-drop (lacrimiform) shapes; they are thin-walled, hyaline, and do not react with Melzer's reagent. The family also contains corticioid fungi (in genus '' Cylindrobasidium'') and a secotioid species ('' Guyanagaster necrorhiza''). Taxonomy The family was originally defined by Englis ...

Cryptomarasmius
''Cryptomarasmius'' is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. Taxonomy The genus covers species formerly placed in ''Marasmius'', section (biology), section ''Hygrometrici''. The section ''Hygrometrici'' was described in 1933 by French mycologist Robert Kühner (as "Hygrometriceae") to contain ''Marasmius'' species that were small with a dark, wiry stipe (mycology), stipe, lamella (mycology), gills not arranged in a collar around the stipe, and a dark pileus (mycology), cap with a layer of broom cells. The type species is ''Cryptomarasmius corbariensis'' (formerly ''Marasmius corbariensis'' and originally ''Agaricus androsaceus'' var. ''hygrometricus'', first described in 1852 by Vincenzo Briganti). ''Cryptomarasmius'' combines the words ''crypto'' meaning "hidden" and ''Marasmius'', alluding to the historical placement of the species within ''Marasmius'' as well as the often hidden, minute fruit bodies they produce. A more recent studies show ''Cryptomarasmius'' to be a ...

Rhizomarasmius
''Rhizomarasmius'' is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae, containing about five species. General The genus was created in 2000 by R. H. Petersen to accommodate two species then classified in Marasmius (''M. pyrrhocephalus'' and ''M. undatus''), but which do not belong there due to morphological grounds, including the nature of the cystidia and the way the mushrooms are rooted on a plant substrate. This analysis was backed up in 2006 by DNA comparisons done by Wilson and Desjardin. Unlike most ''Marasmius'' mushrooms, members of ''Rhizomarasmius'' grow on the rhizomes of ferns or flowering plants, and that is the signification of the genus name. Instead of the Marasmiaceae this genus is placed in the Physalacriaceae, a sister clade but a separate family.

Cribbea
''Cribbea'' is a genus of secotioid fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. The genus has a widespread distribution in southern temperate areas, and, according to a 2008 estimate, contains four species. A new species, '' Cribbea turbinispora'', was reported from Australia in 2009, and in the same publication, ''C. lamellata'' was synonymized with '' C. gloriosa''. The genus is named after mycologist Joan Cribb, in recognition of her contribution to fungal taxonomy. Although Rolf Singer, Jorge Eduardo Wright and Egon Horak created the family Family (from la, familia) is a group of people related either by consanguinity (by recognized birth) or affinity (by marriage or other relationship). The purpose of the family is to maintain the well-being of its members and of society. Idea ... Cribbeaceae to contain the genus in 1963, molecular phylogenetic analysis has shown that the genus belong to the Physalacriaceae, with affinities to the genera '' Xerula'' and '' Oud ...

Cibaomyces
''Cibaomyces'' is an agaric fungal genus found in China, Japan, France, and Germany in forests containing Fagaceae. It resembles '' Hymenopellis radicata'' because of its size, radiating stipe and glutinous cap. Unlike species in the genus '' Hymenopellis'', ''Cibaomyces'' produces spiny basidiospores. DNA sequence data show it to be distinct from '' Dactylosporina'', another spiny-spored genus in the Physalacriaceae The Physalacriaceae are a family of fungi in the order Agaricales. Species in the family have a widespread distribution, ranging from the Arctic, ('' Rhizomarasmius''), to the tropics, e.g. '' Gloiocephala'', and from marine sites ('' Mycaureola .... __TOC__ Etymology The name ''Cibaomyces'' is derived from the Chinese word pronounced "Cibao" which means " echinate spores", and the Ancient Greek, "-myces" referring to a fungus. Species This genus includes only one species. Species includes: * '' Cibaomyces glutinis'' References Fungi of Asia Monotypic Basid ...

Mycaureola
''Mycaureola'' is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae of mushrooms. Circumscribed in 1922 by French mycologists René Maire and Émile Chemin, the genus is monotypic, containing the single species ''Mycaureola dilseae''. The fungus is a parasite of the red algal species ''Dilsea carnosa'', on which it causes circular necrotic lesions. Taxonomy ''Mycaureola indica'' was described in a 1957 publication, but the taxon was later transferred to the genus '' Polystigma'' as '' P. indicum''. Molecular phylogenetics placed ''Mycaureola'' in the Physalacriaceae, occupying a subclade with species from the genera ''Rhizomarasmius'', '' Gloiocephala'', ''Xerula'', and ''Oudemansiella ''Oudemansiella'' is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae.

Oudemansiella Australis
''Oudemansiella australis'' is a species of gilled mushroom in the family Physalacriaceae. It is found in Australasia, where it grows on rotting wood. It produces fruit bodies that are white, with caps up to in diameter, attached to short, thick stems. Taxonomy and classification The species was reported as new to science by Greta Stevenson and G.M. Taylor in a 1964 publication, based on a specimen found in March, 1961. According to the 1986 arrangement of Pegler and Young, based largely on spore structure, ''Oudemansiella australis'' is classified in the section ''Oudemansiella'' of genus ''Oudemansiella'', along with the species '' O. mucida'', '' O. venesolamellata'', and '' O. canarii''. In a more recent classification proposed by Yang and colleagues, ''O. australis'' is in section ''Oudemansiella'', which contains tropical to south temperate species, such as '' O. platensis'', ''O. canarii'' and '' O. crassifolia''. These species are ch ...

Gloiocephala
''Gloiocephala'' is a genus of fungi in the family Physalacriaceae. The genus is widespread, though mainly known from tropical and sub-tropical areas, and contains about 30 species. The mushrooms of this group are very small and grow on stems and leaves of monocotyledonous plants, such as sedges, usually in wet places. In most species their fruiting bodies do not develop into a typical mushroom form - the gills A gill () is a respiratory organ that many aquatic organisms use to extract dissolved oxygen from water and to excrete carbon dioxide. The gills of some species, such as hermit crabs, have adapted to allow respiration on land provided they are ... are often reduced to vein-like structures or completely missing, and the stipe may be asymmetrical, short or absent. There are five species which grow in Europe: ''G. caricis'', ''G. cerkesii'', ''G. cornelii'', ''G. menieri'' and ''G. pseudocaricis''.
