Thelephorales
The Thelephorales are an order of fungi in the class Agaricomycetes. The order includes corticioid and hydnoid fungi, together with a few polypores and clavarioid species. Most fungi within the Thelephorales are ectomycorrhizal. None is of any great economic importance, though '' Sarcodon imbricatus'' is edible and commercially marketed, whilst several species have been used for craft dyeing. Taxonomy History Though "the Thelephorales" were referred to in passing by E.J.H. Corner in 1968, the order was not formally published till 1976 when German mycologist Franz Oberwinkler first described it as encompassing the families Thelephoraceae and Bankeraceae. As originally conceived, species within the order had diverse basidiocarp (fruit body) forms, but shared several features in common, notably similarities in basidiospore shape (most having spiny to warted, often lobed spores) and similarities in basidiocarp colours, linked to the presence of thelephoric acid derivat ...

Tomentella
''Tomentella'' is a genus of corticioid fungi in the family Thelephoraceae. The genus is ectomycorrhizal, and widespread, with about 80 species according to a 2008 estimate, although many new species have since been described. ''Tomentella'' was circumscribed by French mycologist Narcisse Théophile Patouillard in 1887.

Polyozellus
''Polyozellus'' is a fungal genus in the family Thelephoraceae, a grouping of mushrooms known collectively as the leathery earthfans. Previously considered a monotypic genus, it now contains the ''Polyozellus multiplex'' species complex. The genus name is derived from the Greek ''poly'' meaning ''many'', and ''oz'', meaning ''branch''. It is commonly known as the blue chanterelle, the clustered blue chanterelle, bluefan, or, in Alaska, the black chanterelle. The distinctive fruit body of this species comprises blue- to purple-colored clusters of vase- or spoon-shaped caps with veiny wrinkles on the undersurface that run down the length of the stem. ''Polyozellus'' has had a varied taxonomic history and has been reclassified several times at both the family and genus level. The range of ''Polyozellus'' includes North America and eastern Asia, where it grows on the ground of coniferous forests, usually under spruce and fir trees. It contains edible species, and has been harv ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Skepperia
''Skepperia'' is a genus of fungi in the family Thelephoraceae. The genus was described by mycologist Miles Joseph Berkeley in 1857 to contain the type species ''Skepperia convoluta''. The genus was circumscribed by Berkeley in Trans. Linn. Soc. London vol.22 on page 130 in 1857. The genus name of ''Skepperia'' is in honour of Edmund Skepper (1825–1867), who was a British botanist and chemist. Distribution It is only recorded as being found in a few places worldwide, America and New Zealand.

Amaurodon
''Amaurodon'' is a genus of fungi in the family Thelephoraceae. Most species in the genus have resupinate and corticioid (flattened, crust-like) fruit bodies that grow on rotting wood. The hymenophore may have pores, teeth, or be smooth, and is typically blue to green in color.

Lenzitopsis
''Lenzitopsis'' is a genus of fungi in the family Thelephoraceae. This genus contains two species, the type '' Lenzitopsis oxycedri'' and '' L. daii'', described as new to science in 2012. The genus name of ''Lenzitopsis'' is in honour of Harald Othmar Lenz (1798–1870), who was a German naturalist from Thüringen Thuringia (; officially the Free State of Thuringia, ) is one of Germany's 16 states. With 2.1 million people, it is 12th-largest by population, and with 16,171 square kilometers, it is 11th-largest in area. Erfurt is the capital and lar ....

Thelephora
''Thelephora'' is a genus of fungi in the family Thelephoraceae. The genus has a widespread distribution and contains about 50 species. Fruit bodies of species are leathery, usually brownish at maturity, and range in shape from coral-like tufts to having distinct pileus (mycology), caps. Almost all species in the genus are thought to be inedible, but ''Thelephora ganbajun'' is a gourmet fungus in Yunnan province of southwest China. The generic name is derived from the Greek (language), Greek ''thele'' (θηλή) meaning ''nipple'' and ''phorus'' meaning ''bearing''. at myEtymology.com Species in the genus are common name, commonly known as "fiber fans" and "fiber vases". Some ''Thelephora'' species are known to accumulate or even hyperaccumulate trace elements in fruit-bodies. ''Thelephora penicillata'' hyperaccumulates cadmium and arsenic.

Polyozellus Multiplex
''Polyozellus multiplex'' is a species complex of fungi first described in 1899. ''P. multiplex'' is commonly known as the blue chanterelle, the purple chanterelle, or, in Alaska, the black chanterelle. However, this mushroom is not closely related to true chanterelles. The fruiting bodies of this species are blue- to purple-colored clusters of vase- or spoon-shaped caps, with veiny wrinkles on the underside which run down the length of the stem. The species may be found growing on the ground in coniferous forests, usually under spruce and fir trees. It is an edible species and has been harvested for commercial purposes. It contains the bioactive compound polyozellin, which has been shown to have various beneficial physiological properties, including suppressive effects on stomach cancer. Taxonomy ''Polyozellus multiplex'' is part of the group of fungi collectively known as cantharelloid mushrooms (which includes the genera ''Cantharellus'', ''Craterellus'', '' Gomphus'' ...

Basidiomycota Families
Basidiomycota () is one of two large divisions that, together with the Ascomycota, constitute the subkingdom Dikarya (often referred to as the "higher fungi") within the kingdom Fungi. Members are known as basidiomycetes. More specifically, Basidiomycota includes these groups: agarics, puffballs, stinkhorns, bracket fungi, other polypores, jelly fungi, boletes, chanterelles, earth stars, smuts, bunts, rusts, mirror yeasts, and ''Cryptococcus'', the human pathogenic yeast. Basidiomycota are filamentous fungi composed of hyphae (except for basidiomycota-yeast) and reproduce sexually via the formation of specialized club-shaped end cells called basidia that normally bear external meiospores (usually four). These specialized spores are called basidiospores. However, some Basidiomycota are obligate asexual reproducers. Basidiomycota that reproduce asexually (discussed below) can typically be recognized as members of this division by gross similarity to others, by the forma ...

Hypochnus
''Hypochnus'' is a genus of fungi. The original treatment of the genus by Elias Magnus Fries included various wholly unrelated species, therefore it is now considered a ''nomen ambiguum'', with the type species ''H. ferrugineus'' assigned to '' Tomentella''. Species * '' Hypochnus anthochrous'' ((Pers: Fr) Fr, 1863) * '' Hypochnus chlorinus'' (Massee, 1901) * '' Hypochnus cinerascens'' (P.Karst, 1888) * '' Hypochnus cucumeris'' (A.B.Frank, 1883) * '' Hypochnus ferrugineus'' * '' Hypochnus fuciformis'' (McAlpine, 1906) * '' Hypochnus fuscus'' * '' Hypochnus fusisporus'' (J.Schrot., 1888) * '' Hypochnus ochroleucus'' (Noack, 1898) – a plant pathogen Plant diseases are diseases in plants caused by pathogens (infectious organisms) and environmental conditions (physiological factors).
