Taxonomic Details
The Crepidotaceae have recently undergone a revision based on phylogenetic analyses. The following characters are typical of this family:
 * saprotrophic on woody or herbaceous matter
 * gymnocarpic (having the apothecium open and attached to the surface of the thallus)
 * spore prints that are pale yellow to brown
 * simple cuticle (although some may have pileocystidia)
 * cheilocystidia always present
 * spores entire, smooth or ornamented but never angular or reticulate
