Hodophilus was described by French mycologist Roger Heim in 1957,[3] but this was invalid because he did not include a Latin diagnosis for the genus, as was required by the rules of nomenclature at the time.[4] The name Hodophilus was later (1958) validly published, but it was generally regarded as synonymous with the genus Camarophyllopsis.[4]
