Abstract: The new family Caloscyphaceae Harmaja is described for Caloscypha Boud. (Ascomycetes, Pezizales). The genus is monotypic, only comprising C. fulgens(Pers.: Fr.) Boud. Characters believed to be diagnostic of the family are treated, some of them being cited from the literature, others having been studied personally.
