The Agaricostilbaceae are a family of fungi in the order Agaricostilbales. Basidiocarps (fruitbodies), where known, are stalked and capitate and produce spores on basidia that are laterally septate.[1] Most species are known only from their yeast states. The family contains two genera (Agaricostilbum being a synonym of Sterigmatomyces).[2]
