“…Species with these characters were originally referred to two genera Helicogloea and Saccoblastia. Subsequent species from various regions of the world were delimited mainly based on micromorphologcal analyses, including the shape and dimensions of hyphae, basidia, basidiospores, and cystidia when present (Baker 1936(Baker , 1946Wells 1990;Chen and Oberwinkler 2000;Kirschner 2004;Schoutteten et al 2018).…”

“…Interaction with the host is made through tremelloid haustoria, which form nanopores at the contact surface. Four more mycoparasitic species have been described within Spiculogloea from various host species (Hauerslev 1999;Roberts 1997;Trichiès 2006;Schoutteten et al 2018). Species of Spiculogloea do not produce basidiomata and all have ornamented, transversally septate basidia.…”

Species delimitation is one of the most fundamental processes in biology. Biodiversity undertakings, for instance, require explicit species concepts and criteria for species delimitation in order to be relevant and translatable. However, a perfect species concept does not exist for Fungi. Here, we review the species concepts commonly used in Basidiomycota, the second largest phylum of Fungi that contains some of the best known species of mushrooms, rusts, smuts, and jelly fungi. In general, best practice is to delimitate species, publish new taxa, and conduct taxonomic revisions based on as many independent lines of evidence as possible, that is, by applying a so-called unifying (or integrative) conceptual framework. However, the types of data used vary considerably from group to group. For this reason we discuss the different classes of Basidiomycota, and for each provide: (i) a general introduction with difficulties faced in species recognition, (ii) species concepts and methods for species delimitation, and (iii) community recommendations and conclusions.
