Porotheleaceae

The Porotheleaceae are a family of saprophytic, mainly wood-decay fungi in the order Agaricales that are primarily agarics, but also include cyphelloid and polyporoid members. The family had been informally cited in the literature as the 'hydropoid' clade.[1][2] The type genus, Porotheleum, was placed in the phylogenetically defined clade in 2002[1] but the clade was more strongly supported in 2006[2] but without including Porotheleum. Its sister group is the Cyphellaceae, both in the 'marasmioid clade'.[2] Some included taxa are cultivated by ants.[1] More recently the family was recognized in an analysis that included Porotheleum.[3]
