The new genus Anastrophella is characterised by nutant basidiomes with inverted-cupulate pilei and smooth hymenophore, a relatively long, central pseudostipe, and a hymeniform pileipellis of smooth, vesiculose cells and pilocystidia. It is allied with the genera Gloiocephala Massee (1892) and Physalacria Peck (1882). In essence, Anastrophella is a Gloiocephala with an upside down pileus and correspondingly nutant habit.
Singer (1976: 311) erected the monotypic taxon Physalacria sect. Pileolina Singer for P. subpeltata Redhead [a binomial that wasn't published validly until 1979 (Redhead 1979)], separating the species from Physalacria s. str. (Berthier 1985) because of the discoid-pileate, pseudostipitate basidiomes. Subsequently, Singer (1986: 374) transferred Physalacria sect. Pileolina and Gloiocephala sect. Sessiles Singer (1976) to the genus Deigloria Agerer (1980), thereby restricting Physalacria to those species with stalked-capitate basidiomes, i.e. with a globose to obclavate, hollow pileus that is fertile over the entire external surface and sits atop a short pseudostipe. We concur with Agerer (1980) that Ph. subpeltata is distinct from Deigloria, differing in forming a well-developed pseudostipe, a discoid-nutant pileus, a pileipellis composed of clavate to vesiculose cells lacking apical appendages and with fusiform-subcapitate pilocystidia and capitate gloeocystidia. In contrast, Deigloria is characterised by sessile-cupulate basidiomes, a non-fertile surface composed of mucronate or broom-like elements, and dermatogloeocystidia with an apical whorl of finger-like appendages (Agerer 1980).
We agree with Singer (1986) that the species he placed previously in Gloiocephala sect. Sessiles rightfully belong in Deigloria, but we consider his sect. Pileolina as distinct from both Physalacria and Deigloria. Accordingly we propose the new genus Anastrophella to accommodate Ph. subpeltata and the New Zealand specimen. For further discussion about taxonomic relationships, cf. Hispidocalyptella.

Gloiocephala phormiorum belongs in sect. Gloiocephala subsect. Macrosporae Singer (1976) where its closest ally appears to be G. longispenna Singer (from Brazil: Singer 1976). The New Zealand taxon is distinguished by relatively large basidiomes with 2-6 fold-like lamellae and a well-developed, white, central stipe: broad basidiospores (8-9.5 µm diam.); fusiform to lageniform, thin-walled hymenial cystidia 60-110 µm long, and fusiform-rostrate pilocystidia 40-85 µm long. In comparison, G. longisperma forms small basidiomes with a more reduced hymenophore and black stipe base, narrower basidiospores (3-4 µm), ventricose hymenial cystidia 30-40 µm long, and pilocystidia 100-200 µm long (fide Singer 1976). The present new species differs from others in the subsection by lacking metuloid hymenial cystidia, having much larger basidiospores, and in its fructification on Phormiaceae.

Gloiocephala tibiicystis belongs in sect. Gloiocephala subsect. Gloiocephala where it is allied with G. mycenoides Singer (1969) and G. epiphylla Massee (1892), The Chilean G. mycenoides differs in forming a densely pubescent, entirely white stipe covered on the base with filiform caulocystidia (and hence the specific epithet), and in forming large conspicuous hymenial cystidia and consistently thin-walled pilocystidia (SGO, holotype!). Gloiocephala epiphylla differs in forming distinctly narrower basidiospores (3.2-4.4 µm diam.), much larger pilocystidia (up to 180 µm long with capitate apex up to 26 µm diam.), and much longer caulocystidia (up to 120 µm long).

Hemimycena reducta is characterised by forming very small, bell-shaped basidiomes with a smooth hymenophore and a central to eccentric stipe that emerges through a slit in the pileus. In addition, the pileipellis is formed from nearly smooth hyphae (not a Rameales-structure), hymenial cystidia and pilocystidia are lacking, and caulocystidia are awl-shaped and often setoid. In the field, basidiomes are suggestive of those of Rimbachia Patouillard (1881) and Calyptella Quelet (1886), however, a true stipe is not formed by members of either of these genera. The habit of H. reducta is also suggestive of the genus Cymatella Patouillard (1889), however, in the latter genus basidiomes develop pigmented stipes, and have fusoid basidioles and Rameales-type pileipelli.
Hemimycena reducta differs from other Hemimycena species with reduced hymenophore [such as H. minutissima Desjardin (1991), H. hirsuta (Tode) Singer (1986), Helotium cyphelloides Redhead (1982), Helotium nebulophilum Redhead (1982), Helotium circulare (Singer) Redhead (1984)] by the combination of lacking pilocystidia, lacking numerous diverticula on pileipellis hyphae, and having tetrasporic basidia.

It is characterised by forming very small basidiomes with smooth hymenophores, fructifications on leaves of Nothofagus, small basidiospores, weakly dextrinoid tissue in the stipe apex, and a pileipellis composed of setulose cells plus capitate pilocystidia. Marasmius meridionalis differs from all other taxa in the section in the combination of a smooth hymenophore and setulose pileipellis cells. The European M. epiphylloides (Rea) Saccardo & Sydow is similar in some respects, but differs in forming well-developed lamellae, fructifications on leaves of Hedera, and in having thick-walled pilocystidia, inamyloid stipe tissues, and basidiospores 11-15 µm long
