Five species are recognized in China, of which three of them are described as new, viz. <i>C. fulviceps</i>, <i>C. minor</i>, and <i>C. parvopullus</i>, while two of them are previously described taxa, viz. <i>C. aureus</i>, and <i>C. lutescens</i>. A key to the known Chinese taxa of the genus is also provided.Frontiers in microbiologyA Contribution to Knowledge of <i>Craterellus</i> (Hydnaceae, Cantharellales) in China: Three New Taxa and Amended Descriptions of Two Previous Species.PMC932554032160001Zhang YZTang LPZhang WHLiang ZQSu MSHuang HYBuyck BChen ZHHao YJZeng NKZhang PfalseA Contribution to Knowledge of <i>Craterellus</i> (Hydnaceae, Cantharellales) in China: Three New Taxa and Amended Descriptions of Two Previous Species.Species of <i>Craterellus</i> (Hydnaceae, Cantharellales) in China are investigated on the basis of morphological and molecular phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequences from nuc 28S rDNA D1-D2 domains (28S) and nuc rDNA internal transcribed spacer ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region.
