This is an incomplete list of species in the agaric genus "Pluteus". Species of "Pluteus" are commonly found growing on woody substrates including stumps, logs, fallen branches, woody debris such as sawdust, and buried wood.
Three sections are widely accepted in "Pluteus", including "Pluteus", "Hispidoderma" Fayod, and "Celluloderma" Fayod. Section "Pluteus" is characterized by fruit bodies with a filamentous cap cuticle (pileipellis) and thick-walled pleurocystidia. Section "Hispidoderma" consists of species with a filamentous pileipellis and thin-walled pleurocystidia. Section "Celluloderma" is defined by a cystoderm pileipellis composed of ellipsoid to saccate-pyriform to vesiculose cells with or without cystidioid elements. The widespread genus contains over 300 species.
