Pseudohydnum brunneiceps is described as a new species from Jiangxi Province, central China. Morphologically, it is characterized by a gelatinous basidiocarps, pilei pale yellowish brown, dark reddish brown to blackish velutinate, spines conical and white, and basidiospores globose to broadly ellipsoidal. Phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequences from partial 28S region and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) also confirm that P. brunneiceps forms an independent lineage within Pseudohydnum. A description, photographs of the fresh basidiomata and line-drawings of the microstructures are provided. In addition, the previous records of P. gelatinosum in China should be re-evaluated by more representative samples by molecular phylogeny.

Pseudosperma flavorimosum is a new species described from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Pakistan. It is delimited based on morphological characters combined with a molecular phylogeny inferred from nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analyses. The ITS-based phylogeny supports the independence of the new species, which is also is morphologically distinct from closely related taxa.

Three new species of Russulaceae, Lactifluus umbonatus and Lactifluus indicus belonging to Lf. subg. Gerardii and Lactarius keralensis belonging to L. subg. Piperites, are described from Kerala State, India. Comprehensive descriptions, photographs, line drawings and comparisons with phenetically similar and phylogenetically related species are given. Nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS) of the three species were sequenced and analyzed. In addition, nuclear ribosomal large subunit (nLSU) gene of Lactifluus indicus was sequenced and the sequence was used in BLASTn search to find similar sequences. Maximum likelihood (ML) analysis based on the ITS sequences confirmed both the novelty of these species and their placement within their respective genera. The discovery of Lactifluus umbonatus and Lf. indicus represent the first report of novel species belonging to Lf. subg. Gerardii from India. Lactifluus indicus represents the second record of a pleurotoid Lactifluus species from India.

Three new species of Calocybella, C. lohitha, C. babruka and C. swetha are described from Kerala State, India based on morphology and molecular phylogeny. Comprehensive descriptions of these species are provided along with photo-illustrations and comparisons with phenetically similar and phylogenetically related species. Nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the three species were sequenced and analyzed. In addition, nuclear ribosomal large subunit (nrLSU) region of Calocybella swetha was sequenced and used in BLASTn search to find similar sequences. ITS-based phylogenetic analysis using Maximum likelihood (ML) method supported both the novelty of these species and their placement within the genus. The discovery of these three species forms the first record of Calocybella outside Europe.

Laccaria violaceotincta sp. nov. is described from Kerala State, India based on morphology and molecular phylogeny. All the collections of the species were made from a freshwater swamp forest predominantly composed of species of Myristica. The Maximum Likelihood (ML) analysis of sequence of the internal transcribed spacer (nrITS) of the ribosomal RNA gene clearly revealed its novelty as well as its position within the genus Laccaria. A taxonomic description, photographs of the basidiocarps and the micro-structures, comparisons with phenetically similar and phylogenetically related species and a phylogram depicting the placement of the new species are provided.
