Abstract
Species of Tulasnellaceae share the unique feature of tulasnelloid basidia, characterised by swollen sterigmata. All species have a resupinate inconspicuous or lacking basidiomata. Only three genera are assigned to the family, two of them being monospecific. Here, we treat the species of the genus Tulasnella phylogenetically, ecologically, and biogeographically and review the literature accordingly. Most geographic data are derived from floristic and molecular studies of tulasnelloid mycobionts in mycorrhizae. Tulasnella species have a world-wide distribution. They appear to be associated with orchids on a global scale, and may occur in many forest ecosystems as lignicolous fungi.
