Taxonomy This 'genus' was erected under the rules of the Phylocode, which does not recognize ranks or type species. The name is here adopted because it appears in the literature encompassing two named taxa Plakina trilopha and Corticium candelabrum, but its position in the present classification is controversial. Phylocode and Linnean classifications show fundamental differences. The 'definition' of Tetralophosa is quoted from the original paper:
(Branch-based) the most inclusive clade containing Plakina trilopha Schulze, 1880 and not Plakina monolopha Schulze, 1880 and Corticium candelabrum Schmidt, 1862. [details]
