Anthracobia is a genus of fungi in the family Pyronemataceae. The genus was circumscribed by Jean Louis Émile Boudier in 1885.[1] Anthracobia is widely distributed in north temperate regions, and contains 15 species.[2] Phylogenetic analyses suggest that the genus as currently circumscribed is polyphyletic.[3]
