Molecular phylogeny and taxonomy reveal two new genera and five new species in Phanerochaetaceae (Polyporales) from Yunnan, Southwest China.

ABSTRACT: In the present study, two new genera Paradonkia, and Neodonkiella, and five new species, viz. Paradonkiafarinacea, Neodonkiellayinjiangensis, Phanerochaetealbocremea, Phanerochaetefissurata, and Phanerochaetepunctata collected from southern China, are proposed based on a combination of morphological features and molecular evidence. Paradonkiafarinacea is characterized by the resupinate, membranaceous basidiomata with pale cream to gray cream hymenial surface and a monomitic hyphal system with simple septa and clamp connections; Neodonkiellayinjiangensis is characterized by soft coriaceous basidiomata, a monomitic hyphal system and ellipsoid basidiospores (3.5-5 × 2-2.5 µm); Phanerochaetealbocremea is characterized by res
