Datronia

Datronia Donk 1966, in Cui, et al., Fungal Diversity 97, 137–392 (2019)

Diagnosis: Basidiocarps annual, usually effused-reflexed, sometimes resupinate. Pilei brown to black, tomentose or glabrous. Pore surface white, grayish brown to blackish brown; pores angular, large, entire to lacerate. Context more or less brownish, usually with a black line upwards. Tubes concolorous with pore surface, corky. Hyphal system dimitic; generative hyphae bearing clamp connections; skeletal hyphae dominant, IKI–, weakly CB+. Cystidia absent; cystidioles present. Basidia clavate, with four sterigmata and a basal clamp connection. Basidiospores cylindrical, hyaline, thin-walled, smooth, IKI–, CB–.          Previously, eight species were accepted in Datronia, recently, two new genera were segregated from the genus based on multilocus phylogeny, and most species were transferred to these new genera (Li et al. 2014). Till now, only one species of Datronia was recorded from China.
