Pterulicium is a genus of fungi in the Pterulaceae family.
The genus was previously monotypic, containing the single species Pterulicium xylogenum, found in southeast Asia.
[1] However in 2020 a major reclassification of the Pterulaceae family occurred based on phylogenetic analysis and the Pterula genus was split into Pterula, Myrmecopterula, Pterulicium and Phaeopterula by the mycologists Caio A. Leal-Dutra, Bryn Tjader Mason Dentinger and Gareth W.
[2][3] As of July 2022[update], Species Fungorum accepted 42 species of Pterulicum.
