Crepidotaceae

The Crepidotaceae have recently undergone a revision based on phylogenetic analyses. The following characters are typical of this family:

• saprotrophic on woody or herbaceous matter
• gymnocarpic (having the hymenium open and attached to the surface of the thallus)
• spore prints that are pale yellow to brown
• simple cuticle (although some may have pileocystidia)
• cheilocystidia always present
• spores entire, smooth or ornamented but never angular or reticulate
