Abstract
Dictyosporium Corda, Weitenweber’s Beitr. Nat. 1: 87 (1837) Notes. Dictyosporium was proposed by Corda (1836) with D. elegans designated as the type species. Species of Dictyosporium are distributed across the globe in both freshwater and terrestrial habitats, functioning as saprobes and frequently found on decaying wood, plant litter, and in soil (Van Emden 1975; Boonmee et al. 2016; Yang et al. 2018; Zhang et al. 2023). To date, a total of 91 species has been recorded within this genus (Index Fungorum 2025).
