Gloeohypochnicium is a genus of wood-inhabiting crust fungi of uncertain familial placement in the order Russulales. Originally conceived by Erast Parmasto as a subgenus of Hypochnicium,[2] Kurt Hjortstam considered it worthy of distinct generic status in 1987.[3] The type species, G. analogum, was described as new to science in 1913 by French mycologists Hubert Bourdot and Amédée Galzin as a species of Gloeocystidium.[4] G. versatum was added to the genus in 2010.[5]
