“…As a L.decastes complex, Clade a has 12 species most similar to Lyophyllum decastes, namely Lyophyllum (11,13,21,22,23,28,46,47,52,60,88). This result is broadly consistent with and surpasses those based on the phylogenetic analyses and morphology studies, which found 5 and 8 species, respectively (Moncalvo et al, 1993;Ma et al, 2022Ma et al, , 2023, also proving the reliability of our results.…”
