Mitrulinia is a fungal genus of uncertain familial placement in the order Helotiales. Mitrulinia is a monotypic genus,[2] containing the single species Mitrulinia ushuaiae. The genus was circumscribed in 1987 by mycologist Brian Spooner.[3]
Mitrulinia populations have been found separately in Argentina and on the South Island of New Zealand.[4] Spores or hyphal fragments were also found present in snow on Livingston Island, Antarctica.[5] Individuals found in New Zealand are thought to belong to a novel species rather than Mitrulinia ushuiae.[6]
It produces a stipitate-capitate ascocarp (a fruiting body) arising from a substratal or sclerotial stroma tissue.[7]
