Taxonomy
Scopuloides was first proposed by George Edward Massee in 1890 as a subgenus of Peniophora,[2] then raised to generic status by Franz von Höhnel and Viktor Litschauer in their 1908 work on Austrian crust fungi.[1] Kurt Hjorstam and Leif Ryvarden suggested that the genus was not published validly,[3] but it was accepted as valid by other authorities.[4][5]
