Records and new species ofPluteusfrom Brazil based on morphological and molecular data

Phylogeny of the Pluteaceae (Agaricales, Basidiomycota): taxonomy and character evolution

“…Hispidoderma, though the unusual shape of the cystidia, and its possible relation to the metuloids in sect. Pluteus, was already noticed by Singer (1958) and Pegler (1983) and also, with molecular evidence, by Menolli et al (2010). The cystidia in P. glaucotinctus are thin-walled and morphologically similar to the cystidia found in sect.…”

Phylogeny of Pluteus section Celluloderma including eight new species from Brazil

“…1c), which awaits additional collection and molecular data to identify the species present in this clade. Some collections in this complex were identified as P. fluminensis Singer (FK1046, NMJ127), P. fuligineovenosus E. Horak (FK826) and P. jamaicensis Murrill (NMJ130) by Menolli et al (2010). However, a recent morphological reexamination (Menolli et al 2015) of the specimens of this complex revealed that they are characterized by a rugose-venose pileus and both pigmented and colorless cheilocystidia.…”

“…The first differs from the type variety by the presence of black stripes on the stipe (Singer 1959, Menolli et al 2010) and the second due to the apical resinous encrustation on cystidia (Singer 1962).…”

A new annulate Pluteus variety from Italy

“…Celluloderma and with yellow-orange tinges, P. flammipes E. Horak (Horak 1964) and P. laetus Singer (Singer 1958(Singer , 1961 are characterized by a celluloderm-like pileipellis with cystidioid elements and the latter also by rostrate cheilocystidia. P. aureovenatus Menolli & Capelari from Brazil (Menolli et al 2010) is characterized by a deep yellowish orange and strongly veined pileus, translucently striate margin, sub-free and yellow lamellae, globose basidiospores (6.2(-7.5) 3 (5.0-) 6.2(-7.5) mm), and large non-pedicellate pileipellis elements. P. chrysophlebius (Berk.…”
