Abstract
The status of the generic name Syzygospora is reviewed and the holomorph name is applied to a group of Basidiomycetes. Nine species are accepted in the genus. Three are proposed as new species (S. marasmoidea, S. norvegica and S. subsolida) and five others are transferred to Syzygospora (S. effibulata comb. nov. [basonym: Christiansenil effibulata], S. mycetophila comb. nov. [Tremella mycetophila], S. phallida comb. nov. [C. pallida], S. solida comb. nov. [Heterocephalacria solida], S. tumefaciens comb. nov. [C. tumetaciens]). Carcinomyces, Christiansenia and Heterocephalacria are treated as synonyms of Syzygospora. [The 9th species is S. alba].
