Four new species of <i>Entoloma</i> subgenus <i>Cyanula</i> (Entolomataceae, Agaricales) from subtropical regions of China.

ABSTRACT: In this study, four species of EntolomasubgenusCyanula (E.orientosinense, E.subgriseosquamulosum, E.subpraegracile, and E.wuyishanense) from subtropical regions of China, are described as new to science based on morphological and phylogenetic analyses. Morphologically, E.orientosinense is characterized by the white basidiomata, relatively large basidiospores, and carneogriseum-type lamellae edge; E.subgriseosquamulosum is recognized by the fuscous pileus, crowded and adnate lamellae, and medium-sized basidiospores; E.subpraegracile is identified by the yellow pileus and intervenose lamellae with sterile or heterogeneous edge; E.wuyishanense is distinct by the blue basidiomata and fertile lamellae edge with slightly bluish pigmentation
