A number of species are litter-rotting and produce fruitbodies underneath fallen leaves and compacted litter

It was not until the advent of DNA sequencing that the full diversity of these fungi was realized. The genus 83:. Since they are often studied as a group, it is convenient to retain the informal (non-taxonomic) name of "corticioid fungi" and this term is frequently used in research papers and other texts. 173:
Corticioid fungi are rather loosely defined, but most have effused fruit bodies, the spore bearing surface typically being smooth to granular or spiny. Some species (in the genera
