- Taxonomy
- Kirschner et al. (2017) cleared up two nomenclatural problems with illegitimate names from the 2014 paper but a new replacement name S. pseudocandida was invalid (did not cite the basionym Merisma candidum Schwein. 1822). In 2018 they provided an Erratum to propose a new replacement name S. confusa. I checked into the tangled names for this taxon then conferred with nomenclatural experts and we concluded that candicans, a sanctioned replacement epithet of Fries, should be used instead (pers. comm. October 2020). Index Fungorum (2018, 2020) did not have the needed data links between Merisma candidum and Thelephora candicans Fr. : Fr. 1832, a replacement name in Thelephora.
