Abstract

The Carbomycetaceae Trappe fam.nov. is established for the genus Carbomyces , formerly included in the Terfeziaceae. The Terfeziaceae now includes Amylascus Trappe gen.nov., Delastria Tul. & Tul., Hydnobolites Tul. & Tul., Mukagomyces Imai, Picoa Vitt., Terfezia (Tul. & Tul.) Tul. & Tul., and Tirmania Chatin. A parallel polyphyletic origin is postulated for these genera, but the family Terfeziaceae is retained until more data permit re-evaluation of the entire Tuberales. Two former genera are reduced to subgeneric rank: Picoa subgen. Leucangium (Quel.) Trappe and Terfezia subgen. Mattirolomyces (Fisch.) Trappe. These new combinations are proposed: Tirmania nivea (Desf. ex Fr.) Trappe, Amylascus herbertianus (Cribb) Trappe, Terfezia arenaria (Moris) Trappe, and T. terfezioides (Matt.) Trappe.
