Auriculariales. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are corticioid, thin, effused and are typically found on fallen wood. The genus is widespread in both temperate and tropical regions and contains over 30 species.

Taxonomy

The genus was introduced for a single species by Brazilian

mycologist Mycology is the branch of biology concerned with the study of fungus, fungi, including their genetics, genetic and biochemistry, biochemical properties, their Taxonomy (biology), taxonomy and ethnomycology, their use to humans, including as a so ...

Johannes Rick in 1938, but its modern interpretation was established by Canadian mycologist E. Robena Luck-Allen in 1963. She placed a number of species previously referred to '' Bourdotia'' into ''Basidiodendron'' based microscopically on their septate basidia, the presence of gloeocystidia, and the production of basidia on distinctive "involucrate" stalks.

Molecular A molecule is a group of two or more atoms held together by attractive forces known as chemical bonds; depending on context, the term may or may not include ions which satisfy this criterion. In quantum physics, organic chemistry, and bioche ...

research, based on cladistic analysis of DNA sequences, has substantially supported Luck-Allen's circumscription of ''Basidiodendron'', though the less typical, larger-spored species remain as yet unsequenced.
