The Agaricostilbales are an order of fungi in the class Agaricostilbomycetes of the division Basidiomycota. They are further classified in the subclass phragmobasidiomycetidae, which contains fungi with basidia (spore-producing cells) that are divided by septa. The order consists of 3 families, 9 genera, and 43 species.[1] The genus Mycogloea is assigned to the Agaricostilbales, although it is of uncertain placement with respect to its family.[2]
Agaricostilbales was circumscribed in 1989 by mycologists Franz Oberwinkler and Robert Bauer, containing Agaricostilbaceae and Agaricostilbum as the type family and genus, respectively, and the related family Chionosphaeraceae,[3] originally circumscribed in 1982.[4] The monogeneric family Kondoaceae was added to the order in 2006.[5] Species in the Agaricostilbales lack cystidia, and have long basidia with transverse septa. They produce basidiospores that are hyaline (translucent) and non-amyloid.[3]
