ExidiopsisNotesA member of the Tremellales (the Order characterised by cruciately septate basidia, each sterigma having its own cell). The fruiting bodies are more or less flattened against the substrate, gelatinous. Distuinguished from similar genera, such as Eichleriella and Sebacina, by microscopica features of the sterile cells surrounding the basidia. Saprobic on wood.
Four species have been reported from New Zealand.
