Taxonomy
Traditionally, the classification of basidiomycetes placed significant emphasis on readily observable features, such as the construction of the

Description
Atheliaceae consists of strictly
Spores are non-amyloid with smooth surface and are normally spherical to ellipsoid, except in Tylospora where it is angular and warted.[11]
Distribution and ecology
Despite its
sclerotia in the nest appears to enhance egg viability, while the fungus might be dispersed to new substrates.[15][16]
Atheliaceae members are also quite widespread, with most of the discovered species occurring throughout the northern temperate regions.[1] They are mostly found in moist environments, on substrates such as soil, humus, leaf litter, and wood.[8] One species, Digitatispora marina, has been found to prefer salt water habitats, growing on marine-submerged woods.[17]
