Antrodiella was
circumscribed by mycologists
Leif Ryvarden and I. Johansen in 1980. Of the seven original species it contained, only the
type, Antrodiella semisupina, remains in the genus;[1] most of the original species have since been transferred to Flaviporus.
Antrodiella was traditionally placed in the family
Phanerochaetaceae until
molecular studies were used to determine a more appropriate classification in the Steccherinaceae.[2][3] The genus is a
wastebasket taxon, containing "species that share common macroscopic and microscopic characteristics, but are not necessarily related".[4]
Description
The
fruitbodies of Antrodiella fungi are either
crust-like to effused-reflexed (stretched out on the
substrate but with edges curled up to form
cap-like structures) in form. They have a waxy and soft fresh texture that becomes dense and hard, and often semitranslucent when dry. If it is present, the cap is narrow and light-coloured, smooth to scrupose (rough with very small hard points). The pore surface is light
ochraceous to straw-coloured when dry, with small pores, and the tubes the same colour as the pore surface. The
context is white to pale straw-coloured.[1]
Antrodiella has a dimitic
hyphal system, containing both generative and skeletal hyphae. The generative hyphae have
clamps; the skeletal hyphae are typically narrow,
hyaline, and thick-walled to solid. Although they are usually unbranched, in rare cases they have a few scattered branches.
Cystidia can be absent or present from the
hymenium. Antrodiellaspores are small, rarely measuring above 5 μm in their longest dimension, and have a shape that is almost spherical,
ellipsoid, or allantoid (sausage-shaped). They are thin-walled, hyaline, and
non-amyloid.[1]
