Fungi named in 1983

The Amanitaceae are a family of mushroom-forming fungi. The family, also commonly called the amanita family, is in order Agaricales, the gilled mushrooms. The family consists primarily of the large genus Amanita, but also includes the smaller genera Catatrama, Limacella, Limacellopsis, Saproamanita, and Zhuliangomyces. The species are usually found in woodlands. The most characteristic emerge from an egg-like structure formed by the universal veil. This family contains several species valued for edibility and flavor, and other deadly poisonous ones. More than half the cases of mushroom

The Tricholomataceae are a large family of fungi within the order Agaricales. Originally a classic "wastebasket taxon", the family included any white-, yellow-, or pink-spored genera in the Agaricales not already classified as belonging to e.g. the Amanitaceae, Lepiotaceae, Hygrophoraceae, Pluteaceae, or Entolomataceae. The name derives from the Greek trichos (τριχος) meaning hair and loma (λωμα) meaning fringe or border, although not all members display this feature. The name "Tricholomataceae" is seen as having validity in describing Tricholoma and other genera that form part of a

Phyllachorales is a small order of perithecial sac fungi containing mostly foliar parasites. This order lacks reliable morphological characters making taxonomic placement of genera difficult. There is controversy among mycologists as to the boundaries of this order. Family Phaeochorellaceae was added in 2020.

Neocallimastigomycota are a phylum containing anaerobic fungi, which are symbionts found in the digestive tracts of larger herbivores. Anaerobic fungi were originally placed within phylum Chytridiomycota, within Order Neocallimastigales but later raised to phylum level, a decision upheld by later phylogenetic reconstructions. It encompasses only one family.

The Calosphaeriales are an order of fungi within the class Sordariomycetes containing 2 families. They are saprophytes and have small fruiting bodies.

Lentinellus micheneri is a species of wood-inhabiting fungus in the family Auriscalpiaceae. It was first described in 1853 by mycologist Miles Berkeley and Moses Ashley Curtis as Lentinus micheneri. David Pegler transferred it to the genus Lentinellus in 1983. The pale tan caps are roundish, centrally depressed, and 5–30 millimetres (1⁄4–1+1⁄4 in) wide. The stems are 1–3 mm (1⁄16–1⁄8 in). it may resemble other species of Lentinellus, especially L. subaustralis, for which microscopy is required to reliably distinguish. It may also resemble Neolentinus kauffmanii. Like all species in its genus,

The Uropyxidaceae are a family of rust fungi in the order Pucciniales. The family contains 15 genera and 149 species.

Suillus salmonicolor, commonly known as the Slippery Jill, is a fungus in the family Suillaceae of the order Boletales. First described as a member of the genus Boletus in 1874, the species acquired several synonyms, including Suillus pinorigidus and Suillus subluteus, before it was assigned its current binomial name in 1983. It has not been determined with certainty whether S. salmonicolor is distinct from the species S. cothurnatus, described by Rolf Singer in 1945. The mushroom's dingy yellow to brownish cap is rounded to flattened in shape, slimy when wet, and grows up to 8 cm (3 in)

The Pileolariaceae are a family of rust fungi in the order Pucciniales. A 2008 estimate places contains 4 genera and 34 species in the family.

The Phakopsoraceae are a family of rust fungi in the order Pucciniales. The family contains 18 genera and 205 species.

Neocallimastix is a genus of obligately anaerobic rumen fungi in the family Neocallimastigaceae. A specialised group of chytrids grow in the rumen of herbivorous animals, where they degrade cellulose and thus play a primary role in the complex microbial ecology of the rumen.

Incrustocalyptella is a genus of fungi in the Cyphellaceae family. The genus contains three species collectively distributed in Colombia, Papua New Guinea, the Hawaiian Islands, and Thailand.

The Chaconiaceae are a family of rust fungi in the order Pucciniales. The family contained 8 genera and 75 species in 2008. By 2020, there were 8 genera and 84 species. Most species have a tropical distribution. Maravalia cryptostegiae has been used with success as a biocontrol agent against rubber vine in Australia.

Carbonea is a genus of fungi in the family Lecanoraceae. Most of the species grow on lichens. The genus is widespread, and contains 20 species. Carbonea was originally circumscribed as a subgenus of Lecidea in 1967 before it was promoted to generic status in 1983.

Armillaria hinnulea is a species of mushroom in the family Physalacriaceae. This rare species is found only in Australia and New Zealand; in Australia, it is a secondary pathogen (i.e., causing disease only after a primary pathogen has damaged the host) of wet sclerophyll forests, and causes a woody root rot. A 2008 phylogenetic study of Australian and New Zealand populations of A. hinnulea suggests that the species was introduced to New Zealand from Australia on two occasions, once relatively recently and another time much longer ago.

Sphaerobasidioscypha is a genus of fungi in the Cyphellaceae family. The genus contains two species found in New Zealand and Venezuela.

Seticyphella is a genus of fungi in the Cyphellaceae family. The genus contains three species found in Europe.

Seirophora is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Teloschistaceae. It comprises nine species. The genus was erected in 1983, with Seirophora magara assigned as the type species. These lichens form small, shrubby growths with firm, cartilage-like branches that are stiffened by internal cord-like structures and covered with complex surface hairs rather than the simple root-like attachments found in related genera. Several species were transferred to Seirophora in 2004 when the genus was emended by Patrik Frödén and Per Lassen to include some species segregated from Teloschistes.

Pseudolasiobolus is a genus of fungus in the family Tricholomataceae. A monotypic genus, it contains the single species Pseudolasiobolus minutissimus, described by German mycologist Reinhard Agerer in 1983.

Nochascypha is a genus of fungus in the family Marasmiaceae. The genus contains six species found in South America.

The Zaghouaniaceae are a family of rust fungus genera, some of which have long been considered incertae sedis in the order Pucciniales, based on the type genus Zaghouania. The classification of fungal taxa based on only morphological characteristics has long been recognised as problematical, so this order was reviewed over a long-term study using three DNA loci (including type species wherever possible) and published in 2021.

Helicogermslita is a genus of fungi in the family Xylariaceae. Fossils have been found in rocks 12 million year old sediments from central England.

Grovesinia is a genus of fungi in the family Sclerotiniaceae. The genus name of Grovesinia is in honour of James Walton Groves (1906-1970), who was a Canadian mycologist. The genus was circumscribed by Molly Niedbalski Cline, J. Leland Crane and S.D. Cline in Mycologia vol.75 (Issue 6) on page 989 in 1983.

Flammulina fennae is an edible winter mushroom. It is very similar to closely related species Flammulina velutipes, but differs by having a paler cap. As with all the Flammulina species, it grows on wood, mainly of elm and poplar trees. It can withstand winter and freezing weather conditions. Though it is rare compared with F. velutipes, it is well represented in Russia. Its edibility and culinary practice are the same as F. velutipes. Particular attention should be paid to not confuse it with highly toxic Galerina species.

Cystidiodontia is a genus of toothed crust fungi in the family Cystostereaceae.
