[edit] Tubaeformis Genus
Why does the article say that the yellowfoot is a member of the genus Craterellus (Craterellus tubaeformis) yet the external link to mykoweb says Chanterellus tubaeformis. Which is right? Michaelll 00:57, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
- It appears that following DNA testing that the species tubaeformis has been moved from genus Chanterellus to genus Craterellus, see http://www.mushroomexpert.com/cantharellus_clade.html.

- And molecular phylogenetics is not the only line of evidence for this. The morphological affinity of yellowfoots and black-trumpets is pretty evident. Peter G Werner 05:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Black trumpet and Horn of Plenty As Different Species
On another website (http://americanmushrooms.com/edibles7.htm) I saw the Black Trumpet named as Craterellus Fallax and the Horn of Plenty as C. Cornucopioides. Can someone knowledgeable look into this?24.83.178.11 09:07, 18 April 2007 (UTC)BeeCier
Recent DNA studies by Dahlman et al. show that C. fallax and C. cornucopioides are the same species.
