The Mycenaceae are a family of fungi in the order Agaricales. According to the Dictionary of the Fungi (10th edition, 2008), the family contains 10 genera and 705 species.[1] This is one of several families that were separated from the Tricholomataceae as a result of phylogenetic analyses. Taxa in the Mycenaceae are saprobic, have a cosmopolitan distribution, and are found in almost all ecological zones.[2] The family was circumscribed by Caspar van Overeem in 1926.
The extinct genus Protomycena, described from Burdigalian age Dominican amber found on the island of Hispaniola[3] is one of four known agaric genera in the fossil record.[4]

A large-scale phylogenetic analysis study of the Agaricales published by a consortium of mycologists in 2002 adopted the name Mycenaceae for a strongly supported clade consisting of Dictyopanus, Favolaschia, Mycena, Mycenoporella, Prunulus, Panellus, Poromycena, and Resinomycena.[5] Dictyopanus has since been wrapped into Panellus,[6] and both Poromycena[7] and Prunulus into Mycena.[8]
