“…In addition, these two species have highly similar ITS regions (98%). Nevertheless, some members of Candolleomyces with high ITS similarity are still treated as separate species on the basis of morphological characters ( Sicoli et al 2019a ; Büttner et al 2020 ; Wächter and Melzer 2020 ). Candolleomyces subcacao and C. cacao group together, but comprise independent lineages, in the phylogenetic tree (Fig.…”

“…Taking into consideration the results of BLAST searching against GenBank and the research of Büttner et al (2020) and Wächter and Melzer (2020), we analysed ITS, LSU, tef-1α (Tef 1 st , Tef 2 nd and Tef 3 rd ) and β-tub (Tub 1 st and Tub 2 nd ) sequences from 37 taxa. Details are presented in Table 1.…”

“…One of these genera is Candolleomyces D. Wächt. & A. Melzer, which differs from Psathyrella s.s. in lacking pleurocystidia ( Örstadius et al 2015 ; Wächter and Melzer 2020 ). Approximately 100 taxa (including synonyms and subspecies) without pleurocystidia have been previously described in Psathyrella s.l.…”

“…According to the research of Wächter and Melzer (2020) , Candolleomyces may be more speciose than previously thought and better delimitation of species boundaries is needed. Although controversies still exist regarding some species boundaries, the number of new taxa is steadily increasing ( Melzer et al 2018 ; Sicoli et al 2019a ; Büttner et al 2020 ).…”

“…(Fries 1838;Smith 1972;Kits van Waveren 1985;Örstadius and Kundsen 2012;Battistin et al 2014); however, many of these taxa have been treated as synonyms, as unique features, based on conventional methods, are scarce (Galland et al 1979;Kits van Waveren 1980;Knudsen and Vesterholt 2012). Currently, 26 species have been assigned to Candolleomyces (Wächter & Melzer, 2020).…”

Most species of Candolleomyces have brown or dark brown spores. Although pale-spored members are rare in the genus we frequently collected two such species from many Provinces during our investigations in subtropical China from 2016–2020. As revealed by morphological characterisation and multigene phylogenetic analyses (ITS LSU β-tub and tef-1α) these species which we have named C. subcacao and C. subminutisporus are unique and distinct from known taxa. In addition a new combination C. cladii-marisci is proposed on the basis of ITS sequence analysis of the type specimen. Detailed descriptions colour photos illustrations and a key to related species are presented.

In this work, we introduced a new report, Coprinopsis afrocinerea, a coprinoid mushroom from Pakistan. This species was collected several times during the monsoon season; it was found growing on animal dung and on sandy soil mixed with wood chips and leaf litter. This taxon was identified through morphological (macro-and micromorphology) techniques and molecular (ITS-region) markers. Results showed that Pakistani collection's macro-and micro-morphological characters match the type specimen of Coprinopsis afrocinerea. In the phylogenetic tree, sequences of our collections fall within section Cinereae and are clustered with type sequences of Coprinopsis afrocinerea with strong statistical support. This species has already been reported from Africa and is described here for the first time from Asia. Previously, only seven species of Coprinopsis have been reported from Pakistan, and in this study, the number of known taxa has increased to eight. This paper provides a detailed morphological and molecular analysis of this species to differentiate it from closely related taxa.
