 Fungi which do not open up to let their spores be dispersed in the air, but which show a clear morphological relation to agarics or boletes, constitute an intermediate form and are called secotioid.The word is derived from the name of the genus "Secotium", which contains such species.On a microscopic scale, secotioid fungi do not expel their spores forcibly from the basidium; their spores are "statismospores".
