Atractiella is a genus of fungi in the family Hoehnelomycetaceae. The widespread genus contains seven species. Basidiocarps (fruit bodies) are minute and stilboid (pin-shaped)[1] Microscopically they produce auricularioid (laterally septate) basidia.[2] Molecular research, based on cladistic analysis of DNA sequences, has shown that the genus is monophyletic (a natural grouping).[3]
