Pterulaceae
The ''Pterulaceae'' are a family (biology), family of fungi in the order Agaricales. According to a 2008 estimate, the family contained 99 species previously distributed among 12 genus, genera. More recent data from molecular phylogenetic reconstruction showed that members of the genus ''Parapterulicium'' are unrelated to Pterulaceae and also polyphyletic. A new genus ''Baltazaria'' was created and both genera were moved to Russulales, to families Lachnocladiaceae and Peniophoraceae respectively. A major reappraisal of ''Pterulaceae'' was recently published by Leal-Dutra ''et al''., creating the new genus ''Myrmecopterula'', to encompass those species cultivated by ''Apterostigma'' ants in the neotropics, and resurrecting the genus ''Phaeopterula'' to accommodate species with darker basidiomes. The genus ''Deflexula'' was merged into ''Pterulicium''. Additionally, the genera ''Aphanobasidium'', ''Radulomyces'' and ''Radulotubus'' were removed to a new family, ''Radulomycetaceae''. ...

Myrmecopterula
''Myrmecopterula'' is a genus of fungi in the family Pterulaceae. Basidiocarps are clavarioid and are associated with ant domestication by members of the genus ''Apterostigma''. Taxonomy ''Myrmecopterula'' was created in 2020 when the ''Pterulaceae'' was reclassified based on phylogenetic analysis and split into ''Pterula'', ''Myrmecopterula'', ''Pterulicium''. and '' Phaeopterula''. ''Myrmecopterula'' is described as differing from ''Pterula'' in the presence of a cotton-like subiculum. In the context of mycology the subiculum is defined as a net, cottony or crust like growth of mycelium from which hyphae or fruiting bodies are produced. The type species, ''M. moniliformis'' was originally classified as ''Lachnocladium moniliforme'' by the German mycologist Paul Christoph Hennings in 1904. It was classified as ''Thelephora clavarioides'' by the Portuguese mycologist Camille Torrend in 1914. It was reclassified as ''Pterula moniliformis'' by the English mycologist Edred ...

Pterulicium
''Pterulicium'' is a genus of fungi in the Pterulaceae family. The genus was previously monotypic, containing the single species ''Pterulicium xylogenum'', found in southeast Asia. However in 2020 a major reclassification of the Pterulaceae family occurred based on phylogenetic analysis and the ''Pterula'' genus was split into ''Pterula'', '' Myrmecopterula, Pterulicium and Phaeopterula'' by the mycologists Caio A. Leal-Dutra, Bryn Tjader Mason Dentinger and Gareth W. Griffith.

Phaeopterula
''Phaeopterula'' is a genus of fungi in the family ''Pterulaceae''. Basidiocarps are clavarioid and resemble species of ''Pterula''. Taxonomy This genus was originally described by the German mycologist Paul Christoph Hennings in 1905 but most subsequent mycologists considered it a synonym of ''Pterula''. The genus was resurrected in 2020 when a major reclassification of the Pterulaceae based on phylogenetic analysis split the family into four genera: ''Pterula'', ''Myrmecopterula'', ''Pterulicium'', and ''Phaeopterula''. Three former ''Pterula'' species were added to ''Phaeopterula''. Species As of October 2022, Species Fungorum ''Index Fungorum'' is an international project to index all formal names (Binomial nomenclature, scientific names) in the fungus Kingdom (biology), kingdom. As of 2015, the project is based at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, one of three partn ... accepted five species of ''Phaeopterula''. References Pterulaceae Agaricales genera Tax ...

Radulotubus
''Radulotubus'' is a monotypic genus of corticioid or crust fungi in the family Radulomycetaceae containing the single resupinate species ''Radulotubus resupinatus.'' This species was found in Yunnan province, China and formally classified in 2016. The specimen was found growing on the fallen trunk of an angiosperm. It was originally placed in the family ''Pterulaceae'' and noted to be closesly related with '' Aphanobasidium'' and '' Radulomyces.'' A major reclassification of the ''Pterulaceae'' family occurred in 2020 and the genera '' Aphanobasidium'', '' Radulomyces'' and ''Radulotubus'' were moved to a new family, '' Radulomycetaceae'' by the mycologists Caio A.

List Of Agaricales Families
The Agaricales are an order (biology), order of fungus, fungi in the class Agaricomycetes (division Basidiomycota). It is the largest group of mushroom-forming fungi, and includes more than 600 genus, genera and over 25,000 species. Molecular, Molecular phylogenetics analyses of ribosomal DNA sequences have led to advances in our understanding of the Agaricales, and substantially revised earlier assessments of family (biology), families and genera. The following families are in the Agaricales, according to Kalichman, Kirk & Matheny (2020), with more recent additions and amendments, as noted. The number of genera and species in each family is taken from Catalogue of Life (2023), unless otherwise noted, and is subject to change as new research is published. Many genera are not as yet assigned to a family. Families See also *List of Agaricales genera Notes References Literature cited * * * * * {{cite book , author=Lotsy JP. , title=Vorträge über ...

Deflexula
''Deflexula'' is a genus of tooth fungi in the family Pterulaceae. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed by British botanist E.J.H. Corner in his 1950 work "''Clavaria'' and Allied Genera". The type species, ''Deflexula fascicularis'', was originally described in 1901 as ''Pterula fascicularis'' by Giacomo Bresadola and Narcisse Théophile Patouillard. Deflexula was merged with Pterulicium in 2020 and is now an inactive taxon. Description The fruit bodies are small, up to 25 mm long. Spores are white in deposit, smooth, spherical to ellipsoidal, with large oil droplets (guttules). The basidia are large and four-spored; cystidia are absent. The hyphal system is dimitic, and the skeletal hyphae have clamp connections.
