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
Johannes (João Evangelista) Rick (19 January 1869 – 1946) was an Austrian-born Brazilian priest and mycologist considered the "father of Brazilian mycology". He was the first to systematically document the fungal biodiversity, particularly the ...
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.
