Taxonomic remark Genus accepted in Hyde et al., 2024 (in Brachybasidiaceae) but listed in Index Fungorum (since at least 2009) as a syn. of Kordyana in same family. Piepenbring et al., 2020 state: Raciborski (1900) described a further genus called Lelum based on Lelum ustilaginoides Racib. on Persea sp., which is attributed to Brachybasidiaceae by some authors (e.g., Kirk 2019). However, due to the host species belonging to Lauraceae, a light brown spore mass, and basidiospores with longitudinal ridges, we suppose that this species may belong to Cryptobasidiaceae. Though basidia carry two basidiospores each, this characteristic does not fit to the morphological concept of Cryptobasidiaceae. Thus, this species needs further analyses. [details]
