Ripartites

Ripartites is a genus of fungi in the family Tricholomataceae. The genus has a widespread distribution and originally contained five species.^[1] Species in Ripartites have small, round to subglobose spores, which are yellowish-brown and ornamented. Macroscopically, they resemble Clitocybe. Ripartites was circumscribed by Petter Karsten in 1879.^[2]
