Geopora arenicola es un pequeño hongo en copa hipogeo a semisoterado con exterior pálido y peludo e interior liso, que crece en suelos arenosos. Habita suelos arenosos bien drenados de dunas costeras, brezales arenosos y praderas secas en Europa templada. Este hongo ectomicorrícico o saprotrófico descompone la materia orgánica en sustratos arenosos pobres en nutrientes.

Geopora tenuis es un hongo en copa hipogeo o semihipogeo de la familia Pyronemataceae, catalogado como Casi Amenazado (NT). Produce cuerpos fructíferos inconspicuos de paredes delgadas que se desarrollan en la superficie o justo debajo del suelo en hábitats forestales. Su estado casi amenazado puede reflejar dependencia de suelos forestales maduros no perturbados.
