(Paris): 365 (1888)

Basidiomata typically astipitate with a tubular or cupulate hymenophore. Hyphae are monomitic, usually presenting clamp connections, non-amyloid, and often gelatinous. Basidia four spored and basidiospores hyaline. Cystidia absent.
Representative families
:
Fistulinaceae Lotsy
,
Schizophyllaceae

Notes
:
Schizophyllineae
is equivalent to schizophylloid clade of
Moncalvo
et al.
(2002)
. The
Lachnellaceae
, which was recovered as the sister group to
Schizophyllaceae
by
Matheny
et al.
(2006)
and
Binder
et al.
(2010)
, might also belong here. Species are readily distinguished by the unusual tubular or cupulate hymenophore that predominates in members of this group. Ecologically, this group is characterized by saprotrophy, with both white- (
Schizophyllum
) and brown- (
Fistulina
) rot capacity.
