Söderström et al. (2013) outlined the current status of the family Lophocoleaceae. Following their concept several new combinations are needed, most of which are made here.
While many of the taxa treated below need to be lectotypified, we are generally not doing that here. We only transfer taxa that have been shown to belong to the new genus in recent studies (molecular and/or morphological) or taxa that have been studied by the authors (see Söderström et al. 2013 for further references).
There still exist taxa that need to be transferred from Chiloscyphus, but we are not transferring them here, since it is unclear to us in which genus they belong. The format of this note follows Söderström et al. (2012) except that we use the Melbourne International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN; McNeill et al. 2012) instead of the Vienna International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN; McNeill et al. 2006).
