Naiadolina is an agaric fungal genus that produces striking, yellowish fruit bodies on sedges (Scirpus and Dulichium) in wetlands in eastern Canada. The lamellae are merulioid, forked and anastomosing.^[2] The type species was previously classified as a Marasmius in the Marasmiaceae, but phylogenetically, Naiadolina flavomerulina is in the Physalacriaceae^[2] sister to the genus Cryptomarasmius.^[3]^[4]

Etymology

The name Naiadolina is an allusion to the naiads or water nymphs in reference to the wetland habitat.^[2]
