Gymnopus dryophilus is a species of mushroom, until recently most frequently known as Collybia dryophila. It belongs to section Levipedes of the genus, being characterized by a smooth stem having no hairs at the base (in contrast to section Vestipedes). The species is commonly found in temperate woodlands of Europe and North America. It is generally saprophytic, but occasionally also attacks living wood. The caps have been considered edible but can cause severe gastrointestinal issues.

The Capnodiaceae are a family of fungi in the Ascomycota, class Dothideomycetes. Species in the family have a widespread distribution, and are especially prevalent in tropical and subtropical areas, as well as temperate rainforests.

The Porotheleaceae are a family of saprotrophic, mainly wood-decay fungi in the order Agaricales that are primarily agarics, but also include cyphelloid fungi. The family has been informally cited in the literature as the 'hydropoid' clade. The type genus, Porotheleum, was placed in the phylogenetically defined clade in 2002, but the clade was more strongly supported in 2006, although without including Porotheleum. Its sister group is the Cyphellaceae, both of which are in the 'marasmioid clade'. Some included taxa are cultivated by ants. More recently, the family has been recognized in three

Cristulariella depraedans, commonly known as gray mold spot, sycamore leaf spot or bull's eye spot, is a fungal pathogen that affects maple trees (genus Acer) and certain other woody and herbaceous species. In maples, the foliage becomes affected by small grey lesions which expand and coalesce, the leaves later wilting and falling from the tree early. The disease seems to be associated with cool wet summers, and epidemic years sometimes occur.
