3-700.00.00Bracket fungusBracket fungus is a fungus that shows shelves, large fruiting bodies with pores or tubes on the underside.
Type: woody, shelf- or bracket-shaped fungi, occasionally circular fruiting bodies.
Clade: Basidiomycota.
Names: Polypores, Bracket fungi, Shelf fungi, Conks; Hydnoid fungi.Cortioid fungiCortioid fungi look like a cortex, a lyer, on wood
Atheliaceae
Corticaceae
AmylocorticiaceaeCoral fungiCoral fungi are fungi that look like coral. They are also called clavarioid fungi or club fungi.Bioluminescent fungiBioluminescent fungi are light giving fungi.
Genera: 71 known species (Desjardin, 2005, 2008, 2010).
Clade: Basidiomycota, except Xylaria hypoxylon.
Region: South America, Europe, few Asian countries.
Habitat: tropical and temperate; dense forests.
4 definite lineages:
Omphalotaceae: Omphalotus, 12 species
Physalacriaceae: Armillaria, 5 species
Mycenaceae: Mycenoid, 45 species, Gerronema viridilucens, Mycena lucentipes.
Xylaria hypoxylonGasteroid fungiGasteroid fungi are fungi that don’t open.
Name: Gasteromycetes.
Taxonomy: polyphyletic.
Included:
Lycoperdaceae: Puffballs.
Geastrales: Earthstars.
Phallaceae: Stinkhorns.
Melanogastraceae, Rhizopogonaceae, Sclerodermataceae: hymenogastrale = false truffles, hard-skinned, underground, subterranean, fruiting bodies, resembling truffles, Tuber.Secotioid fungiSecotioid fungi are an intermediate growth form between mushroom-like hymenomycetes and closed bag-shaped gasteromycetes. The evolutionary process of gasteromycetation has started but not run to completion. They often lack the vertical geotropic orientation of the hymenophore needed to allow the spores to be dispersed by wind.
