.Taxonomy
This genus was originally described by the German
mycologist Paul Christoph Hennings in 1905 but most subsequent mycologists considered it a synonym of Pterula. The genus was resurrected in 2020 when a major reclassification of the Pterulaceae based on phylogenetic analysis split the family into four genera: Pterula, Myrmecopterula, Pterulicium, and Phaeopterula.[1]
Three former Pterula species were added to Phaeopterula.
Species
As of October 2022, Species Fungorum accepted five species of Phaeopterula.[2]
