Series Haematocephali Singer emend. J.S. Oliveira & Moncalvo

Persoonia 44: 274 ( Oliveira et al. 2020).

Basidiomata marasmioid (umbrella-like), thin, small- to medium sized. Pileus membranous, sulcate. Lamellae distant to subdistant, free to adnate. Stipe mostly filiform with a scanty, tomentose basal mycelium. Basidiospores elongate, clavate to subfusoid (11-25 µm long, xm = 17.5-22 µm, Qm = 4.3-5.9). Pleurocystidia present, well-developed, elongate, refractive. Pileipellis composed of Siccus-type broom cells only. Habit preference for leafy and/ or woody substrate.

TYPE SPECIES. — Marasmius haematocephalus (Mont.) Fr.

NOTES

In Oliveira et al. (2020), this series included stirpes Ferrugineus , Haematocephalus and Siccus of Singer (1976). These informal supraspecific groups are presented below with morphologically described species (except stirps Siccus) included in the phylogenetic analyses in this study.
