Rhodotus is a genus in the fungus family Physalacriaceae. The specific epithet palmatus is a reference to the wrinkles on the cap surface, which resemble (somewhat) the lines on the palm of a hand. This is the only Rhodotus species; it is difficult to mistake it for any other mushroom. Rhodotus palmatus is the type species of the (monotypic, meaning that there is only one known species) genus Rhodotus.
