FOR THE BOLETINELLACEAE--- New research by Andrew Wilson confirms, Boletinellus and Phlebopus belong in the Sclerodermataceae. Dentinger et al 2010 use B. merulioides as the outgroup for the Boletus sensu stricto (Porcini) study. Essentially, no question that these species belong in Sclerodermatineae. FOR THE TAPINELACEAE The Tapinellaceae are a family of fungi in the Boletales order. Previously, the members of the Tapinellaceae were members of the Paxillaceae family, in the genus Paxillus. However, they were removed as Tapinella species are saprotrophs and the current Paxillus species are ectomycorrhizal. A distinction supported by molecular studies.
