Gomphales are an order of basidiomycete fungi[2][3][4]. Some or all families belonging to Gomphales are sometimes included in the order Phallales (and vice versa - [5]they are also sometimes treated as synonyms)[6], the Ramariaceae was also previously included in Cantharellales. Recent phylogenetic analyses include in Gomphales the families of the original description of the order by W.Jülich, with addition of Clavariadelphaceae and Gautieriaceae [7].
