Ripartites is a genus of fungi in the family Tricholomataceae. The genus has a widespread distribution and originally contained five species.[1] Species in Ripartites have small, round to subglobose spores, which are yellowish-brown and ornamented. Macroscopically, they resemble Clitocybe. Ripartites was circumscribed by Petter Karsten in 1879.[2]
The genus name of Ripartites is in honour of Jean Baptiste Marie Joseph Solange Eugène Ripart (1815–1878), who was a French physician, botanist and mycologist.[3]
Previously unknown sesquiterpenes have been isolated from Ripartites metrodii and Ripartites tricholoma.[4]
