Taxonomy

The genus was circumscribed by Sheng-Hua Wu in 1990 with Efibula tropica as the type species. Efibula contains Phlebia-like fungi without clamp connections.[1] Although traditionally classified in the family Phanerochaetaceae,[2] recent molecular phylogenetic analysis supports the placement of Efibula in the Irpicaceae.[3]

As of June 2018, Index Fungorum accepts 16 species in Efibula:[4]

The genus Roseograndinia was created in 2005 to contain the fungus once proposed for transfer into Efibula as Efibula rosea.[8]
