We critically reviewed the aphyllophoroid fungal species recorded from Chile on the basis of literature reviews from 1828 to 2020. A total of 345 species names were distributed in the following categories: accepted taxa (236), uncertain taxa (83), taxa inferred by molecular analysis only (12), and excluded taxa (14). For each accepted species, information on the species name, its first record from Chile, the typification data, substrate, distribution, and remarks are presented. The distribution of accepted taxa shows a major recording from the Valdivian Forest province. We found that 61 (25.85%) of the accepted taxa were originally described from Chile. Nothofagus was the genus that hosted the highest number of fungal species.
