 Genera formerly known as "Leptonia" and "Nolanea", amongst others, have been subsumed into "Entoloma".Mushrooms in the Entolomataceae typically grow in woodlands or grassy areas and have attached gills, differentiating them from the Pluteaceae, which have free gills.The very large family Entolomataceae has a cosmopolitan distribution, and species are common in both temperate and tropical climates.
