Morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses revealed five new species (Basidiomycota) from Southwestern China.

ABSTRACT: In the present study, five new wood-inhabiting fungal species, Conferticiumalbocremeum (Stereaceae, Russulales), Dendrocorticiopsisluteoalba (Punctulariaceae, Corticiales), Eichleriellabiluoxueshanensis (Auriculariaceae, Auriculariales), Gloeohypochniciumyunnanense (Incertae sedis, Russulales), and Punctularianigrodontea (Punctulariaceae, Corticiales), collected from southern China, are proposed based on a combination of morphological features and phylogenetic evidence. Conferticiumalbocremeum is characterized by membranaceous and smooth basidiomata with white to cream surface and ellipsoid and verrucose basidiospores (9-11 × 5-7 µm); Dendrocorticiopsisluteoalba is characterized white to buff, membranaceous basidiomata and ellipsoid, thin-wa
