Laxitextum Lentz., U.S. Dept. Agric. Monogr. View in CoL View at ENA 24: 18 (1956 [1955]). –

Type: Laxitextum bicolor (Pers.) Lentz.

Basidiomata resupinate or subpileate, rather soft and pliable, upper side brown, tomentose or when older with adpressed hairs, sometimes slightly zonate; hymenium white in fresh specimens; margin finely fibrillose in the resupinate state, smooth or somewhat tomentose in pileate ones ; hyphal system monomitic; hyphae thin-walled; cystidia smooth; basidia clavate, tetrasterigmate, with a basal clamp connection; basidiospores thin-walled, ellipsoid to globose, echinulate, amyloid.

Laxitextum , although a species-poor genus as currently known, is well characterised by its combination of stereoid basidiomata with brown trama and a white or pale-coloured subhymenial layer, enclosed or partly projecting gloeocystidia, and amyloid, echinulate basidiospores.
