Saprobic mushrooms on dead plant material, with smooth, brown spores with no germ pore. A non-descript genus not common in New Zealand.

Poorly understood for New Zealand, several of the species reported may have been misidentified.

Pileus regular, thin; gills more or less decurrent, broadest behind, or near the stem, hence somewhat triangular stem central, hollow; spores rusty.

The species are small and delicate; known amongst the Ochrosporae by the more or less decurrent, triangular gills. Corresponds in structure to Eccilia in the Rhodosporae, and Omphalia in the Leucosporae. Growing on the ground.
