Lepiotaceous Fungi

An interesting species of lepiotaceous fungi, Leucoagaricus callainitinctus sp. nov., is described from Kerala State, India based on morphology and molecular phylogeny. This species is distinguished by basidiocarps that turn dark turquoise on bruising/handling or reacting with NH4OH. A phylogenetic study was conducted based on Maximum likelihood analysis of nrITS sequences. In the phylogram, the new species nested as a distinct lineage in a group, which consisted predominantly of members of section Piloselli of the genus Leucoagaricus. A comprehensive description, photographs of the basidiocarps and the microscopic structures, comparisons with phenetically similar and phylogenetically related species and a phylogram showing the placement of the new species are provided.

Marasmius cystidiatus sp. nov. is described from Kerala State, India based on both morphology and nrITS sequence-based molecular phylogeny. The phylogenetic tree inferred from maximum likelihood analysis showed M. cystidiatus nesting within the clade representing Marasmius section Globulares. Within this clade, M. cystidiatus formed a distinct lineage, sister to a cluster containing mostly members of the series Atrorubentes. A comprehensive description and photographs of both basidiocarps and microscopic structures of the new species are provided along with a comparison with morphologically close and phylogenetically related species.

Corneriella indica sp. nov. is described from Kerala State, India. Comprehensive description, photographs, and comparisons with phenetically similar species are provided. Maximum likelihood analysis conducted on a concatenated dataset comprising ITS, nLSU, nSSU and rpb2 of the Tricholomataceae supported the generic placement and species validity of C. indica. Conspicuous cheilocystidia, one of the defining features of the genus, are missing in C. indica but the lamella edges are still sterile and composed of projecting tramal hyphae with cystidioid terminal elements.

Inocybe griseorubida sp. nov. is described from Kerala State, India. A comprehensive description, photographs, and comparisons with phenetically similar species are provided. The nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), a portion of the nuclear ribosomal large subunit (nLSU) and a portion of the nuclear second-largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (rpb2) gene of this species were sequenced and analyzed. Phylogenetic analysis of rpb2 sequences confirmed both the novelty of the species and its placement within the Pseudosperma clade.

A field survey of macrofungi from the Hindu Kush range of District Swat revealed a fungus morphologically similar to Leucoagaricus but representing a new species, here named L. brunneus. A detailed description and comparison with closely allied taxa are provided. Maximum likelihood analysis based on the internal transcribed spacer rDNA region (ITS) confirm its placement in Leucoagaricus sect. Rubrotincti .

Inocybe distincta sp. nov. is described from Kerala State, India. A comprehensive description, photographs, line drawings and comments are provided. The nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), a portion of the nuclear ribosomal large subunit (nrLSU) and a portion of the nuclear second-largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB2) gene of this species were sequenced and analyzed. BLASTn searches using nrLSU and RPB2 sequences and subsequent ML phylogenetic analysis of combined nrLSU and RPB2 sequences confirmed that Inocybe distincta is a representative of the Nothocybe lineage. As the Nothocybe lineage is assumed to have affinities to I. cutifracta, and as there are different interpretations of that species, we examined the holotype of I. cutifracta collected by T. Petch and another collection from Sri Lanka identified as I. cutifracta by D. N. Pegler, and we present here our observations on these collections.

Tubaria keralensis sp. nov. is described from Kerala State, India based on morphology and molecular phylogeny. Comprehensive description, photographs, and comparisons with phenetically similar and phylogenetically related species are provided. Tubaria keralensis is characterized by its strongly intervenose lamellae with concolorous edges; a stipe with velar remnants and a white, strigose basal mycelium and broadly ellipsoid to ovoid basidiospores. Nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region (nrITS) and nuclear ribosomal large subunit (nrLSU) gene region were sequenced and analyzed. Maximum likelihood (ML) analysis of combined nrITS and nrLSU sequence data revealed the novelty of the species as well as its placement in the T. furfuracea complex. The present discovery of T. keralensis forms the second report of a new Tubaria species from Kerala.
