Eichleriella


Eichleriella is a genus of fungi in the order Auriculariales. Species produce effused or cupulate, waxy to leathery basidiocarps (fruit bodies) on wood, with a smooth to spiny surface. The genus contains some twelve species.[1][2][3]

Molecular research, based on cladistic analysis of DNA sequences, has redefined the genus, with some species now placed in Heteroradulum and others transferred to Eichleriella from Heterochaete.[1] Eichleriella was named by Italian mycologist Giacomo Bresadola in honour of Bogumił Eichler (1843 - 1905), Polish botanist and mycologist.
