Gomphales

The Gomphales are an order of basidiomycete fungi.^[2][3][4] Some or all families belonging to Gomphales have been sometimes included in the order Phallales (and vice versa - ^[5] they are also sometimes treated as synonyms),^[6] the now-obsolete Ramariaceae was also previously included in Cantharellales. Recent phylogenetic analyses include in Gomphales the families of the original description of the order by Walter Jülich, with addition of Clavariadelphaceae.^[7] According to one 2008 estimate, the Gomphales contain 18 genera and 336 species.^[8]
