The Lachnocladiaceae are a family of fungi in the order Russulales. A 2008 estimate places 124 species in 8 genera in the Lachnocladiaceae.[1] Species of this family, which have a widespread distribution in both tropical and temperate zones, are typically found on decaying coniferous or deciduous wood.[2] The family was circumscribed by British mycologist Derek Reid in 1965.[3]
