Clavariadelphus

Clavariadelphus is a genus of fungi in the family Clavariadelphaceae in the order Gomphales. Morphologically its members can be described as club fungi with simple, erect and unbranched basidiomata, even if the clavarioid fungi are today not seen as a systematic group. Numbers of described and currently accepted species are constantly rising, this might be connected both to applied new techniques and due to previously understudied areas like China. As of March 2026 there are, depending on the source, either 31, 34 or 35 accepted species currently recognized.
