Rhizina

Rhizina is a genus of ascomycete fungi in the order Pezizales. The genus was circumscribed by Elias Magnus Fries in his 1815 work Observationes mycologicae, with R. undulata as the type species.[1] R. atra and R. lignicola were added to the genus in 1921 and 1925, respectively, by Australian botanist Leonard Rodway.[2]
