  • Dictydium Schrad. (1797)
  • Heterodictyon Rostaf. (1873)

Features

The fruiting bodies are usually pedunculated sporangia, a calyculus may be present or absent. The delicate peridium is reduced to a structure of vertical, thickened threads that are interconnected by extremely fine, translucent transverse threads. [3] In some cases, however, the peridium may also appear like a net, as in Cribraria - species. Mostly dark, clearly visible dictydine granules are found especially close to the ribs of the peridia, the calyculus and the spores. [4]

Distribution

The genus is distributed worldwide, about two-thirds of the species are, however, [neotropic] ch. Many of their species are common in the respective distribution areas. [4]

Systematics and Research History

The genus was first described in 1794 by Christiaan Hendrik Persoon, type species is Cribraria rufescens . [4]

The genus includes at least 30 species, including: [3]

gollark: That's not gravity. It's the government's tractor beams faking gravity by pulling you down.
gollark: It would have been nice if we ended up with P2P 802.11whatever (WiFi) instead of Bluetooth, since at least then there would be fewer protocols to deal with.
gollark: Mostly I do actually have to think before typing things, so typing speed isn't a *terrible* concern.
gollark: I can type 100WPM or so on my laptop's keyboard, and really slowly on my phone even with the autospellcorrection.
gollark: I really just want a cuboid with a 5"-diagonal display with a sensibly low-resolution rectangular LCD screen (or a smaller one with a keyboard or something, like BlackBerry's keyone stuff), enough thickness to fit in a few days of battery life, swappable batteries (maybe even two), GNU/Linux support, headphone jacks and other important IO (maybe a USB-C and USB-A port), and µSD card support.
