Turbinellus is a genus of five species of fungi in the family Gomphaceae. It was circumscribed by Franklin Sumner Earle in 1909.[1] The genus, along with several others in the Gomphaceae, was reorganized in the 2010s after molecular analysis revealed that the older morphology-based classification did not accurately represent phylogenetic relationships.<ref name=Giachini 2010"/> The type species, Turbinellus floccosus, had been placed before then in the genus Gomphus.[2]
