Pseudohydnum is a genus of fungi in the order Auriculariales. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are typically bracket-like and gelatinous, with or without a stipe, with a hydnoid (toothed) undersurface. The genus is widely distributed in both the northern and southern hemisphere, with over a dozen species currently described and others awaiting description.^[1]

Taxonomy

The genus, first described by Finnish mycologist Petter Adolf Karsten in 1868,^[2] has not yet been classified with certainty into a family. Molecular research, based on cladistic analysis of DNA sequences, has confirmed Pseudohydnum as a natural (monophyletic) taxon.^[3]^[1]
