Junghuhnia is a genus of crust fungi in the family Steccherinaceae (formerly placed in the family Meruliaceae).[3] It was circumscribed by Czech mycologist August Carl Joseph Corda in 1842.[4] The generic name honours German-Dutch botanist Franz Wilhelm Junghuhn.[5]

Description

[edit]

The fruit bodies of Junghuhnia species are crust-like (rarely with a cap). They have a dimitic hyphal system and encrusted cystidia. Their spores are obovoid (egg-shaped) to cylindrical.[6]

Species

[edit]

As of June 2017, Index Fungorum accepts 36 species in Junghuhnia:[7]
