'''''Climacodon''''' is a widespread genus of tooth fungi in the family Phanerochaetaceae.

==Taxonomy== The genus was circumscribed by Finnish mycologist Petter Karsten in 1881 with ''Climacodon septentrionalis'' as the type species.<ref name="Karsten 1881"/> This fungus was originally described by Elias Magnus Fries in 1821 as ''Hydnum septentrionale''.<ref name="Fries 1821"/>

''Climacodon'' has been placed variously in the family Meruliaceae,<ref name="Kirk 2008"/> or in the Phanerochaetaceae.<ref name="Fungorum"/> Molecular analysis places ''Climacodon'' as a member of the Phlebioid clade.<ref name="Binder et al. 2013"/>
