Macrotyphula is a genus of clavarioid fungi in the order Agaricales. The genus has a widespread distribution and contains seven species,[1] including the most recently described M. cordispora from Spain (2012).[2] The genus was described in 1972 by American mycologist Ronald H. Petersen, who set M. fistulosa as the type species.[3]
