The genus Leucoagaricus has been well studied in Europe. However, species diversity of Asia remains poorly known, especially the mountains southwestern China, a hot spot for biodiversity. Based on morphological characters and molecular data, four new are described, La. asiaticus, subcrystallifer, subpurpureolilacinus truncatus. Detailed descriptions, drawings microstructures novel taxa comparisons with closely allied provided. Phylogenetic analyses inferred from internal transcribed spacer...
Fungal Systematics and Evolution (FUSE) is one of the journal series to address “fusion” between morphological data and molecular phylogenetic describe new fungal taxa interesting observations. This paper 6th contribution in the FUSE series—presenting genus, twelve species, country records, three combinations. The new genus is: Pseudozeugandromyces (Laboulbeniomycetes, Laboulbeniales). The species are: Albatrellopsis flettioides from Pakistan, Aureoboletus garciae from Mexico,...
Agaricus endoxanthus is one of the few species Agaricus, which are broadly distributed across several continents. This typically tropical has also been introduced and reported from European greenhouses. To better circumscribe this taxon understand its distribution, we investigated intraspecific variability. Sixteen collections resembling A. various regions were selected for morphological examination sequencing. Through a combined molecular approach, nine specimens identified as endoxanthus....
Lepiota lahorensis sp. nov. is described from Lahore, Pakistan. Its characterizing features are pinkish brown pileus with dark furfuraceous scales, oblong to ellipsoid spores, clavate cheilocystidia, and covering made up of trichodermal elements without shorter at their base. The phylogenetic analysis based on nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer sequence shows its unique position in sect. Ovisporae.
Taxonomic investigations on the family Entolomataceae were conducted in Pakistan from 2018 to 2022. Morphological characteristics and molecular phylogenetic analyses using ITS LSU sequences revealed two new species, Entoloma pakistanicum Rhodophana margallensis, a record, E. albotomentosum. margallensis is first report of genus Pakistan. We present illustrated descriptions three species comparison with morphologically similar or related species. Furthermore, we provide key known
A new species belonging to the Rusticoides clade of Entoloma, with an omphalinoid habit is described from Pakistan detailed morphological descriptions, illustrations and molecular data. Illustrations microcharacteristics comparison closely allied are provided. Entoloma griseofibrillosus distinguished based on a greyish brown, hygrophanous fibrillose pileus, sub-isodiametric angular spores, varying shapes cheilocystidia pileipellis as cutis.
