Candelabrochaete is a genus of crust fungi in the family Phanerochaetaceae.

Taxonomy[]

The genus was circumscribed by French mycologist Jacques Boidin in 1970. He originally included two species, , and the type, .[1]

Description[]

Similar to the genus Phanerochaete, Candelabrochaete features simple septa in the subicular hyphae and at the base of the basidia, and hyaline, thin-walled, nonamyloid spores. Several features distinguish Candelabrochaete from Phanerochaete. These include small, cylindrical to club-shaped (clavate) basidia, septate cystidia, a loosely interwoven subiculum (a mat of hyphae from which the fruitbody arises), and a loosely organized hymenium. This latter characteristic gives a farinaceous to woolly appearance to the fruitbodies.[2]
