What is "echinodontiaceae"

The Echinodontiaceae are a family of crust fungi in the order Russulales. Species of this family, divided amongst two genera— Echinodontium and Laurilia—have a widespread distribution, although they are especially predominant in north temperate zones. They are parasitic or saprobic on wood, and may cause white rot of angiosperms and gymnosperms.
