Steccherinum is a widely distributed

crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae.[2]

Taxonomy

Steccherinum was circumscribed by Samuel Frederick Gray in his 1821 work A Natural Arrangement of British Plants.[3]

Description

Steccherinum fungi have a range of fruit body morphologies, including resupinate (crust-like), effused-reflexed (crust-like with the edges extending outwards to form caps), or pileate with either a stipe or only a stipe-like base.

Species

A 2008 estimate placed 33 species in Steccherinum.[4] As of June 2017, Index Fungorum accepts 50 species:[5]
