Clavaria amoenoides es un hongo club de la familia Clavariaceae, evaluado como Vulnerable (VU). Produce cuerpos fructíferos erectos, simples o escasamente ramificados en praderas no fertilizadas, un hábitat que ha disminuido drásticamente debido a la intensificación agrícola. Su estado vulnerable subraya la importancia de la gestión tradicional de praderas para la diversidad fúngica.
